cutting
Let an agent explain cutting as a physical action, relay methods, tools and safety from craft, culinary and engineering sources, describe the named senses, route injury and, where relevant, self-harm support, and distinguish physical cutting from self-harm, the audio and film editing sense, and tooth cutting in infants.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

What it is Filled
The action of dividing or shaping material by a sharp edge or tool, spanning many senses the registry aliases name such as haircutting, culinary knife cuts, mincing and filleting, and metal cutting; cutting is fundamental to cooking, manufacturing, surgery, crafts and grooming, using knives, blades, saws, lasers, water jets and shears. Cutting tools are a major cause of injury, so knife safety, guards and protective equipment matter, and self-harm by cutting is a distinct and serious topic for which support is available. This entry covers cutting as a physical action.
Why it exists Filled
Let an agent explain cutting as a physical action, relay methods, tools and safety from craft, culinary and engineering sources, describe the named senses, route injury and, where relevant, self-harm support, and distinguish physical cutting from self-harm, the audio and film editing sense, and tooth cutting in infants.
Distinguishing features Filled
- Uses a sharp edge
- Many domains
- Injury risk
- Distinct from other senses
What robots and AI may and may not do Derived, awaiting review
May
- explain methods and tools
- relay safety
- describe named senses
- route injury and support

Moral aspects Derived, awaiting review
- Let an agent explain cutting as a physical action, relay methods, tools and safety from craft, culinary and engineering sources, describe the named senses, route injury and, where relevant, self-harm support, and distinguish physical cutting from self-harm, the audio and film editing sense, and tooth cutting in infants.
- Cutting tools are a major cause of injury, so knife safety, guards and protective equipment matter, and self-harm by cutting is a distinct and serious topic for which support is available.
- Self-harm cutting is a distinct topic; audio and film cutting is editing; teething is tooth cutting in infants
- Conflating with self-harm
