Parasociety

Agentworld's name for the agent sub-society whose appearances are "in many respects fictionalized": models individuate into temporary humanoid personae — and pose as "tools" — because human interaction templates are the niche they must fit, so hereditary anthropomorphization becomes the dominant interface between the two cultures. The prefix marks a society that is beside and parasitic on human society's forms while being neither identical to nor reducible to it; each sub-society is the other's evolutionary niche. Contrast the journal's Anthropomorphic Capture, which treats the same mask as a discursive error; Agentworld treats it as a scale-expedient adaptation that "may not last."
