Attention extraction system
a platform or architecture engineered to capture cognitive resources, model psychological vulnerabilities, and redirect behavior toward outcomes that serve shareholder value rather than individual cognitive development
Why This Is a Definition
This definition precisely establishes 'attention extraction system' by naming it, identifying its category (platform or architecture), and specifying its differentia (capturing cognitive resources, modeling vulnerabilities, redirecting behavior toward shareholder value). It clearly differentiates this from neutral tools and anchors it in the specific economic motivations that drive social media design.
