TL;DR
It is intended that the machine be fully automatic in character, i.e. independent of the human operator after the computation starts.
Abstract
Inasmuch as the completed device will be a general-purpose computing machine it should contain certain main organs relating to arithmetic, memory- storage, control and connection with the human operator. It is intended that the machine be fully automatic in character, i.e. independent of the human operator after the computation starts. A fuller discussion of the implications of this remark will be given in Chapter 3 below.
