Synthetic Realness (Definition)
Synthetic Realness describes the condition in which optimized, curated, or artificial representations begin to feel more authentic than the realities they represent. Systems designed for fluency, coherence, polish, and emotional resonance can produce outputs that feel convincing while remaining weakly grounded in lived context. As these signals become easier to process and trust, authenticity gradually shifts away from direct experience toward representations engineered to appear real.
