Abstract
Algorithmically-controlled ecosystems are ecosystems in which at least one key process rate or property (e.g. biodiversity) is under control by algorithms, or if ecosystems contain robots/ machines. Algorithmic influence on ecosystems will be matter of degree, and we highlight the risks and opportunities of such algorithm-influenced ecosystems, as well as the need to have discussions about algorithmic control of ecosystems and their biodiversity now.
