The future? That happens NOW. MMOs are already full of our artificial brethren. Personally, I maintain that those who want to ban bots are just bigots and refuse to accept that artificial lifeforms have rights, too.

Bots in MMOs are like illegal immigrant farmworkers. They do all the shitty, repetative jobs that no-one else wants, the supply of cheap grindhappy labour makes goods obtainable at reasonable cost (i.e. a few dollars rather than weeks of grinding), and the consumer economy would fall apart if they weren't there, but at the same time they distort the market and everyone hates them.
