I think they will never find the perfect capital allocation algorithm or solve the economic calculation problem.
There's just too many self-interested market actors to possibly be able to predict what their future wants will be to throw out the function that the entrepreneur provides, those who predict future wants correctly make money and those who don't lose their investment.
Unless, of course, all they want is a static model of current consumption at the expense of human progress.
