REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"The synthetic workforce scaled up instantly for the busy period in a way no human hiring process ever could."

LORE & ORIGIN

Forecasted term extending 'machine-organization'/'synthetic-employee' to describe the full collective AI labor force at once, borrowing standard 'workforce' labor-economics language.
