Guest-Host Theory

Hey guys,

Love the podcast and wanted to share my “Guest-host theory”.

The guests in the park are also host which are being subjected to a Turing test. The test is being unknowingly performed by the park staff and masterfully orchestrated by Dr Ford. These special guest-hosts are similar to the park hosts in that they are made to believe they are real but their implanted backgrounds are of a world outside the park.

The guest-hosts also have the awareness that the park hosts are not real, while the park hosts believe everyone is real. The guest-hosts have special privileges (feelings of invulnerability, can’t be shot, etc.). The ultimate purpose of this guest-host experiment is for Dr Ford to develop the next generation of advanced hosts, which pass the Turing test and are indistinguishable from human.

Bonus variation!
The park staff are also all hosts, and the entire park is one giant host social experiment by Dr Ford.

Thoughts? –Sam from Boston
