Adoptoivien
Adoptoivien is a fictional concept that appears in certain works of speculative fiction. It refers to an individual, often a non-human entity or an artificial intelligence, that has been legally adopted by a human or human family. This adoption grants the adoptoivien rights and responsibilities typically associated with a member of the adoptive family. The concept explores themes of personhood, artificial intelligence rights, and the evolving definition of family. In these narratives, the adoptoivien may face unique challenges related to their origin, societal acceptance, or their own developing sense of identity. The legal and ethical implications of such adoptions are often a central focus, prompting questions about what constitutes a sentient being deserving of legal recognition and familial bonds. The term itself is a portmanteau, combining "adopt" with a suffix that suggests a being or entity. This linguistic construction highlights the synthetic or non-traditional nature of the adoptoivien's existence. The specific characteristics and circumstances surrounding an adoptoivien can vary greatly depending on the fictional universe in which they are presented.
