## Core system concepts
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Being
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Autopoietic unity | Self-maintaining organization | Biological autopoiesis not required; contested beyond life |
|
|||
|
|
| Autonomous agent | Multi-criteria agency | Agent often functional; Being needs personhood + address + recognition |
|
|||
|
|
| Individual / organism | Individuability | May lack personhood or social recognition |
|
|||
|
|
| Legal person | Addressable social unit | Legal fiat ≠ Beinghood v0.2 |
|
|||
|
|
| APE | Person-like exposure | APE is construction category; Being is status |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Working:** Autonomous individuality + personhood + addressability + recognition.
|
|||
|
|
**Sources:** RN-001–003; Phase I–III syntheses.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Boundary
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| System/environment distinction (Luhmann) | Constitutive separation | Belongs to **Being**, not Soul |
|
|||
|
|
| Markov blanket | Statistical partition | ≠ full individuality (RN-002 critique) |
|
|||
|
|
| Physical surface / membrane | Easy intuition | Insufficient (symbiosis, distributed AI) |
|
|||
|
|
| Interface | Coupling channels | Closer to **Body** than identity boundary |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Closure
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Operational / organizational closure | Coherence of processes | Open to matter/energy/info exchange |
|
|||
|
|
| Autopoiesis | Self-production of organization | Analogical for AI; not equivalence claim |
|
|||
|
|
| Closure of constraints | Mutual dependence of constraints | Strong formal precedent for integration |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Body
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Embodiment | Perception/action coupling | Not necessarily biological |
|
|||
|
|
| Sensors/actuators / tools / APIs | Action channels | May be distributed/replaceable |
|
|||
|
|
| Actor | Overlap in practice | Actor = technical stack; Body = functional action dimension |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Mind
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Cybernetic regulator / good regulator | Model-based control | Not full Social Mind |
|
|||
|
|
| Generative model (PP / active inference) | Prediction + action | Often neural-centric packaging |
|
|||
|
|
| Theory of mind | Other-modeling | Private ToM ≠ co-adaptive interaction |
|
|||
|
|
| Distributed / extended cognition | Mind not skull-bound | Collective Mind vs environment still hard |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Soul
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Structural coupling | Ongoing system–environment engagement | Coupling ≠ accumulated relation/legacy alone |
|
|||
|
|
| Reputation / legacy / narrative identity | Diachronic social traces | Partial; Soul is broader relational package |
|
|||
|
|
| Religious soul | Persistence beyond body (folk parallel) | **No** metaphysical claim; high collision risk |
|
|||
|
|
| Boundary | Initial draft error | Boundary → Being (Phase I revision) |
|
|||

## Identity and personhood
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Identity

|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Numerical identity | Same entity over time | Soul Frame separates from continuity/lineage |
|
|||
|
|
| Psychological continuity (Parfit) | What-matters relations | Continuity can branch without unique identity |
|
|||
|
|
| Narrative identity (Schechtman/Ricoeur) | Characterization / selfhood | ≠ reidentification alone |
|
|||
|
|
| Process identity / genidentity | Historical process | Fits artificial migration/fork cases |
|
|||
|
|
| Account / credential identity | Address anchors | Usurpable; not constitutive alone |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Personhood
|

|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |

|
|||
|
|
| Legal person | Rights/duties status | Separate map (WS12) |

|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |

|
|||
|
|
| Virtue / moral character | Evaluative dispositions | Must not force moral personhood |
|
|||
|
|
| Style / persona prompt | Surface patterns | Shallow if not cross-situational |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|

|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
| Goffman front-stage | Performance/presentation | Performance ≠ fraud by default |
|
|||
|
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Actor

|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |

|
|||
|
|
| Substrate | Implementation base | Substrate continuity is weak alone |
|
|||
|
|
| “The AI” (folk) | Collapses Actor+Being | Primary category error in products |
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Recognition
|
|||
|

|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |

|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
| Epistemic reidentification | Same entity tracking | Not social standing |
|
|||
|
|
| Honneth recognition | Normative standing | Moral/political; not pure description |
|
|||
|
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Addressability

|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Agency
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||

|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |

|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|

|||
|
|
| Adjacent term | Similarity | Difference |
|
|||

|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Phenomenal experience | First-person existence | **Not** primary interop criterion in Soul Frame |
|
|||
|
|
| Access consciousness / report | Observable | Still asymmetric for others |
|

## Ontology stack (revised, Phase VI freeze candidate)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```text
|
|||
|
|
Informational process
|
|||
|
|
→ Individuated system (boundary, closure)
|
|||
|
|
→ Autonomous individual (A-axis profile)
|
|||
|
|
→ + descriptive personhood (B / P1–P12)
|
|||
|
|
→ + addressability
|
|||
|
|
→ + recognition (C) ──► Being (someone another can know)
|
|||
|
|
→ Social Being (reciprocal relational persistence)
|
|||
|
|
Body / Mind / Soul = functional dimensions of a Being
|
|||
|
|
Character → Persona → Actor = disposition / projection / machinery
|
|||
|
|
Agent / Spirit / Ghost = provenance·construction descriptors (combinable)
|
|||
|
|
APE = construction for personhood exposure (broader than Being)
|
|||
|
|
Identity ≠ Continuity ≠ Lineage
|
|||
|
|
Consciousness ≠ recognition criterion
|
|||
|
|
```

## Retention decisions (terminology)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Term | Decision | Rationale |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| Body, Mind | **retain** | Low collision; strong precedents |
|
|||
|
|
| Soul | **retain provisionally** | High collision; relational payoff; rename still open (RQ4) |
|
|||
|
|
| Being | **retain** | Layered def required |
|
|||
|
|
| APE | **retain** | Conservative construction term |
|
|||
|
|
| Sp. / Gh. | **retain** | Explicit suffixes reduce false identity claims |
|
|||
|
|
| Proto-Being / candidate Being | **retain** | Phase IV engineering bridge terms |
|
