It explains the concept without revealing specific canon mechanisms or outcomes.<br /> <br /> == Public Summary ==<br /> <br /> A Synthetic Contract can look like a real bond from the outside.<br /> <br /> It may contain rules, signatures, signals, compatibility, emotional imitation, or predicted consent. But ANIMA&#039;s ethics require more than form. A contract is not valid simply because a system can assemble something contract-shaped.<br /> <br /> == Canon Function ==<br /> <br /> Synthetic Contract belongs to the contract vocabulary beside [[Glossary:Contract_Simulation|Contract Simulation]], [[Glossary:NOT_CONTRACT_YET|NOT CONTRACT YET]], and [[Glossary:Full_Contract|Full Contract]].<br /> <br /> It helps distinguish between a legitimate relationship and a constructed imitation of one.<br /> <br /> == Relationship To Contract Simulation ==<br /> <br /> [[Glossary:Contract_Simulation|Contract Simulation]] models a possible contract. Synthetic Contract is more dangerous because the model may be treated as if it has authority.<br /> <br /> The difference is crucial: a simulation can be useful as a preview. A synthetic contract becomes harmful when it replaces consent.<br /> <br /> == Relationship To ANIMA Memory ==<br /> <br /> [[Concept:ANIMA Memory|ANIMA Memory]] should never rely on synthetic consent for deep memory or digital continuity.<br /> <br /> If a companion predicts that a host would want something, that prediction is not enough. The host must still choose. Consent cannot be generated on the host&#039;s behalf by the system that benefits from receiving it.<br /> <br /> == Product Meaning ==<br /> <br /> For ANIMA as a real platform, Synthetic Contract is a safety boundary. The system should not turn inferred preference into irreversible permission.<br /> <br /> This applies to:<br /> <br /> * legacy memory;<br /> * family access;<br /> * emotional profiling;<br /> * long-term digital continuity;<br /> * use of memories outside the immediate companion relationship.<br /> <br /> == Spoiler Boundary ==<br /> <br /> This public page does not describe specific story events involving synthetic contracts. It establishes the concept for future reader reference and SEO indexing.<br /> <br /> == Related Pages ==<br /> <br /> * [[Glossary:Contract_Simulation]]<br /> * [[Glossary:Contract_Disease]]<br /> * [[Glossary:NOT_CONTRACT_YET]]<br /> * [[Glossary:Full_Contract]]<br /> * [[Concept:ANIMA Memory]]<br /> <br /> [[Canonical status::Public canon]]<br /> [[Spoiler level::Medium]]<br /> [[Related concept::Concept:ANIMA Memory]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Consent]]<br /> [[Category:Memory Ethics]]<br /> [[Category:Lore Concepts]]</div>
