Question: Is the meaning of “embedded” in “embedded agency” more like in “integers are embedded in real numbers” (an algebraic structure is embedded in another algebraic structure) or is it more like in “a GPU is embedded in a laptop” (a physical object is embedded in another physical object)?
I translate this sequence into Russian and we have different words for this two cases. Now I prefer the second option, but if it turns out that the same word as here is used on purpose, I will change my mind.
Just to double check: You’d rather say that embedded (in embedded agency) is the synonym of “built-in” (like “In 2005 next generation proprietary embedded controller was introduced.”) then “ingrained” (like “Less—is embedded metalanguage: valid CSS will be valid less-program with the same semantics.”), correct?

I would go with the physical object one.

Thank you!
