Have a Theory? Share It Now!<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/div>Hey guys,<\/p>\n

I had a theory I wanted to share, and I think it explains both why Delos needs to extract a host from the park, and why Ford has so much power. <\/p>\n

We know that nobody knows how to make passable AI other than Ford and Bernard. It doesn’t seem like it’s a solved problem, because even Ford doesn’t seem to understand how Arnold laid the foundation or Bernard filled in the gaps. People seem to be able to iterate on top of the base behaviours of the hosts, but I believe the reason that they’re so valuable is that they have a core knowledge base that is not easy to parse. <\/p>\n

It reminds me of how Machine Learning based algorithms can end up using a trained database of logic that is incomprehensible to the original authors. Things like the Youtube algorithm are black boxes, and the engineers aren’t quite sure why the algorithm flagged a video as offensive, it’s just been trained. <\/p>\n

I believe that nobody can create believable AI without smuggling out a core set of data that the hosts use. And that data is not contained within a single host, but distributed amongst them as a network. In my opinion this unparsable data is the IP that Delos wants. <\/p>\n

The most obvious use of this would be to Manchurian Candidate people in the real world. Ford maybe cares so much about this that he built a contingency plan if it looked like Delos was going to ever get what they wanted. Which in my opinion would require destroying all the hosts. <\/p>\n

I think the entire chaos is scripted by Ford, that machine consciousness isn’t linked to the revolt. He has scripted Bernard, Delores, Maeve and others to not only cause chaos, but to clean house. With the hope that nobody ever will be able to replicate what they unlocked. <\/p>\n
