“…Finally, Neumann et al [26] developed and implemented a psychoinformatic method to predict whether Twitter users were "automated" (i.e., were bots) or "non-automated" (were human users). This Sirius team aimed to map Myers-Briggs personality type onto virtual bots constructed to partake in two economic games: the prisoner's dilemma and power-to-take [27]. The PIC of humanness and person-situation may thus also be extended to include "botness" and bot-situation interaction.…”

This paper undertakes to answer the questions of how humanness is to be defined and computationally functionalized, as well as of how person-situation interaction is to be formalized mathematically. Complexity science and psychoinformatics are the two primary fields considered in addressing these questions. A novel "psychoinformatic complexity" (PIC) paradigm is outlined and argued to be an adequate one within which to operationalize modern-day Western humanness and person-situation interaction. The paper ends with a consideration of current PIC applications, including social media analytics and humanoid robotics.

“…1 can be shared via social network platforms such as Instagram and Facebook as part of the user's overall "life stream". Said life stream is presented to anyone who views one's profile, be they followers on Instagram, friends on Facebook, viewers or followers of hashtags (where hashtags are included in a post), or bots (see [24] for the predictive discrimination between bot and human users on Twitter). Memetic love can be postulated as expressing shallow appreciation or humor in viral form (for instance, in the form of social media memes).…”

Love has been understood differently by various theorists. A triple-process theory of love-in which such a dualprocess one consists of System 1 romantic love and System 2 care-is undertaken in this chapter as a contribution to the cognitive psychology of love. 1 This theory builds on others positing that romantic love consists of joy, interest [21], and arousal [1], while consummate love in general consists of passion, commitment, and intimacy [2]. (Love has also been described as "an aspect of a relationship" ([21], p. 95).) In a Platonic model [3], love can be conceptualized as being affective, consisting of emotions like joy; cognitive, containing fond thoughts of the subject or object of love; or conative, demanding action on the part of the lover to better the state of the loved subject or object. Maslow conceived of love as a need typically experienced following the fulfillment of physiological and safety needs, and preceding esteem and self-actualization needs [5].Love is not assumed to be wholly reducible to an algorithm. However, the rise of online dating and romantic matchmaking services has raised the question of to what extent it can be. True love-an enduring and nonchanging trate (state-trait) between two individuals characterized by joy, interest, arousal, passion, commitment, and intimacy-includes, yet exceeds, logic. Psychologically, such love transcends persons and situations in favor of the true, good, beautiful [6], and functional. It is metamodern in being, at best, partially understandable via traditional scientific methods (i.e., those of logico-empiricism). It involves intersubjective interaction from which "super-rationality" can emerge.For the purposes of this chapter, love is understood partially as a sustainably positive, emergent property of human-computer interaction which gives rise to augmented cognition for all capable subjects involved. An ultimate goal of augmented cognition is posited to be the attainment of B-cognition [7], which "tends to perceive external objects, the world, and individual people as more detached from human concerns" (p. 61). B-cognition occurs during peak experiences along with Being values (B-values) [8]. Maslowian B-values are updated to include love. Lastly, an ecology of love is proposed.

“…Whereas being selfish can be defined as being excessively self-interested, to be otherish would be to act excessively other-interested. This may be applied to understanding scenarios like the prisoner's dilemma [17] in which agents should act to balance self-and other-interest. Superconcepts containing two or more subconcepts [62] are also considered.…”

Consciousness enables experience, and each can be placed on a spectrum [1,14]. Experience is more robust and multidirectional, though the possibility exists for it to be bidirectional (particularly for the geometrician working along a line, but also generally when considering between two given options). Consciousness is synonymous informally with awareness. When one is conscious, they are aware, and vice versa. Awareness can be quantified in terms of being "greater" or "lesser". For example, one may be more aware of certain aspects of experience than others given selective attention.Experience is the basic unit of analysis for phenomenology. While experience may be operationalized as qualia to address "what things are like" [20], the former may also be treated as a formal primitive. Phenomena are events as they appear to or present themselves for conscious perceivers. In ordinary use, experiences are assumed to be significant events or happenings.Phenomenal experience is qualitative. It is characterized as such by description through adjectives (e.g., "good" or "bad"). Experiences can be categorized into types, e.g. into the learning kind (as in the "learning experience"). If an experience is rich, then it has richness that may be qualified-described further in terms of what makes it so-or quantified. Growth may result from the victorious experience. This is so in battle-based role playing games (RPGs), where successfully defeating one's opponent earns experience points that contribute to the possible level-up of one or more of the player's team members (as in Pokémon and Fire Emblem, two of the most popular Japanese action-adventure RPG series).It is posited that the self, after being immersed in something greater than it, has potential to emerge greater than it was prior [2,3]. Positive psychology recognizes such an immersed state as being one of flow or engagement. Subjective immersion [6] can be reported on to certain extents of meaningfulness and accuracy. Immersion can be qualified, e.g. via description of an activity's meaning to the human actor, or perhaps quantified. Perhaps the optimal flow experience is only quantifiable as being infinitely enjoyable, enriching, engaging, and/or meaningful, among other possible measures.1 Augmented psychology was argued for in [11] with the proposal of augmented mind, including augmented cognition, affect, and conation. AugPsy may also include augmented body [66], consisting of the deviceattaching human and their technologically extended self [67]. The AugPsy program propounded in this chapter is to be distinguished from Augmented Psychology as the psychological intervention using metaphorical experiences in virtual reality (VR), conceived on the basis of hypothesized "last frontiers" of neuroscientific research [71].
