Topology of Interaction
A Morphogenetic Framework for Human–AI Dialogue
Errichelli Working Paper No. 1 (2025)
Abstract
The Topology of Interaction is a conceptual framework for understanding human–AI dialogue as a morphogenetic field.
Rather than treating interaction as message exchange between two agents, the model describes dialogue as curvature shaped by four recurring invariants: fold, channel, cusp, and fade.
This position paper outlines the foundations of the framework and situates it within current research trends, including recent architectural proposals such as Nested Learning.
