Abstract
In this chapter, we discuss some high-level issues left beyond the scope of this book but deemed critical for future research. We first place conversational intelligence and conversational informatics in a larger picture of conversational knowledge circulation and social intelligence design to discuss issues from a wider perspective. We then single out ethical issues as centric to social issues and discuss the role of conversational informatics in the context of moral agents in human-agent symbiotic society. Finally, we come back to empathic agents as discussed in Chap. 1 and elaborate a road map for future study.
