Here’s one later discussion I found, from 2003, by Push Singh at MIT’s Media Lab. It attempts to summarize the implementable parts of the book, and talks about its history and more recent developments.
A couple of interesting things:
Unlike David’s source, it says that ‘Despite the great popularity of the book The Society of Mind, there have been few attempts to implement very much of the theory.’
It says that Minsky’s, The Emotion Machine, forthcoming at the time, is in part a sequel to SoM. I haven’t read it, so can’t vouch for the accuracy of that statement.
