See episode 4 and continue guessing. William is doing immortality, and Ford is doing immortality.
Ford once thought that moving forward and letting robots have human minds and emotions is the dawn. but failed. So back to the origin, let the robot develop randomly under the guidance, create a maze, and let the mind find a set answer. Of course the answer doesn't exist. The process of finding is the purpose of the game. Whether it can evolve, half of it lies in the story line, and half in the evolution of random birth.
William experimented for 30 years, using his father-in-law Delos as the subject, and found that the human soul could not be compatible with the printed body. I am what I am, and it is in my body that my soul develops. Once the human mind realizes that it is artificially printed and copied, it must not be me. A fake cannot be the real me.
How do humans and machines merge? The bifurcation point of the crossing path, is it from machine to man, or from man to machine?
Put the human mind into the machine, or let the machine develop the human mind? These are two completely different ideas. Ford lived through Arnold's defeat, mourned his partner, and inherited Arnold's line of thinking. He chose to let the machine develop the human mind.
William imagined that people's emotional memory and consciousness would be resurrected in the undead body. Reaching immortality, on the surface, is the advancement and breakthrough of man. But what makes man a man is that he dies.
It is death that defines us and gives us conceptual boundaries. Both Ford and Arnold agree that tragedy is a cornerstone of human nature. So every receptionist needs a story background and a basic character. A lover who won't die, a self who won't die, everything can be overturned over and over again, then love is meaningless, and self is meaningless. Memories fade and life dies, which is the foundation of man.
People really want to die. But a man can only die once. The receptionists, the hosts, have to die for real, after they have faked their death many times in the past.
Having death and agreeing with death, the host becomes a real person. That will usher in the real myth, man, who was truly created without the reproduction of animals. The soul and the body are unified and no longer excluded.
I read an interesting story when I was a child, spies sneaked into a certain country to find the secret of making a certain kind of special glass. The final answer was revealed. It turned out that the other party told the protagonist at the beginning, stir, keep stirring, just like you stir the cup of coffee in front of you.
Constantly repeating, it only takes an accidental, earth-shattering change.
