Person-ality (noun)
/pərˈsɒnælɪti/
Portmanteau of “person” + “-ality” (suffix suggesting quality or condition; cf. personality, artificiality).
The simulated personality of an artificial intelligence system, characterized by linguistic patterns, behavioral traits, and interaction styles designed to mimic human-like qualities such as warmth, humor, or empathy, despite the absence of consciousness, identity, or lived experience.
Example: “The chatbot’s person-ality made the conversation feel surprisingly natural, even though I knew I wasn’t talking to a human.”
The impression of identity intentionally crafted in non-human entities (e.g., AI assistants, virtual agents, or characters in interactive media) through curated language, tone, and response logic.
Example: “Game developers spend significant effort building a compelling person-ality for NPCs to enhance player immersion.”

Though the AI lacked true consciousness, its carefully designed person-ality—marked by warmth, wit, and thoughtful responses—made users feel as though they were chatting with a genuine person.
