E3 is a bit plain, there is not much to say, there are a few points to discuss:
1. Some people say that Dolores will not die if he is shot. It must be said that the scene of her being shot in front of the hut is a flash of her memory. That scene has happened countless times in the past 30 years. In fact, she was not shot this time, so it is unnecessary to say that she will not die if she is shot. (By the way, her mom still doesn’t show her face)
2. Ford’s attitude towards AI, there are some new messages in this episode. He doesn’t think AI is human. This is very resolute. He doesn’t want to fall into AI In this black hole made more like humans, his partner once died in Paradise. I also don’t think he simply treats AI as an ordinary service robot, and tends to think that he hopes AI will become a new species, otherwise the paragraph at the end of the last episode doesn’t make sense to the church setting.
3. The derailed AI hits itself with a rock on the head. It is difficult to define this matter. There are two possibilities. One is that it conforms to the three laws of robots and must not hurt people, but it is difficult to explain directly self-harm. I hope that the next episode can fill the hole; the other, the possibility of a bigger brain is that he already has autonomous consciousness and controls at that time The device has no effect on him, and it may be that he does not want his head to be retrieved and taken back for research.
Finally, some people started to watch the show because E3 was a little flat. I think it's too early to say that it is going high and low. At present, E3 mainly fills in some pits and pave the way for the follow-up. The awakening of Dolores is the main line and has already begun. Another focus of this episode is the derailed AI, which can be regarded as a foreshadowing of the side. During the operation of the AI, various bugs will appear, some of which will Stimulate the awakening of AI. As Ford said, it was a mistake that promoted the evolution.
------------------------------------------E3 dividing line----- -------------------------------The
first episode of the first season has dug a big hole, and this theme contains extremely Great malleability and imagination.
The 70-minute navigation set left countless puzzles. Let me talk about what I am most interested in:
1. What does the human world look like? Most of the time, the lens shows us an artificial Westworld paradise, and the modern world is hardly mentioned. Only the photo picked up by Dolores's father looks like Times Square in New York. The place where AI is manufactured, developed, and manipulated does not have many features. Perhaps we will see the true appearance of the human world in the future, which will be completely different from our imagination at the moment, and it can also be unfolded here. Perhaps the purpose of establishing the Western World is more than just a paradise.
2. According to the current rhythm of the script, the theme of AI awakening will still be the theme in the near future. Looking at the trailer of the second episode, several characters and several story lines are moving forward. I am curious about how AI awakening is going step by step. out of control? Is it progressive or abrupt? In the process of awakening, how can human beings stop or boost it? There are countless possibilities in this setting, and the screenwriter can use his imagination freely.
3. What is the identity of Dolores? As an AI that has not been abandoned for 30 years, it should have a story. It is very likely to be related to Ford. Is it a reflection of some kind of emotional sustenance? Maybe add some more points. N years ago, Dolores had awakened and was controlled.
4. Ford's position on AI? He has a very ambiguous attitude towards Dolores, and he seems to be looking forward to the awakening of AI.
5. What is the role of Ed? At present, it seems to be a high play, but after 30 years of play, it is not greasy. There should be a special reason. Although AI can't kill people with guns, it might be premature to conclude that Ed must be a human for this reason.
6. What will happen after AI awakens? massacre? In the second episode of the trailer, there has been a stage of AI killing. If it evolves into a force fight between humans and AI, then this season of the show can be over. AI awakening does not mean absolute opposition to humans. Even if their iterative version has been abused countless times in the paradise, awakening is not a simple form of retrieving the memory of amnesiacs, looking forward to more subtle answers.
7. Speaking of the grand structure, this play can evolve from the current ethics to science fiction. At the same time, it will continue to explore the various ethical issues that arise after the coexistence of humans and artificial humans. Then this play will have endless possibilities. .
------------------------------------------E2 dividing line----- -------------------------------After
watching E2, the key to this episode is the lines. I have a certain explanation for the problem I am concerned about, and at the same time, I have laid more foreshadowing. Here are the answers to the above questions one by one:
1. What does the human world look like?
Still no specific description. But given a picture of the subway arriving at the station, it doesn't look too future as a whole. Judging from the two newly introduced character costumes, they are not far away from the current world. I will no longer be entangled with this issue for the time being, because the more interesting aspects are ethics and ideology, which will be mentioned below.
2. The recent theme is AI awakening. How to awaken?
This episode has a clearer hint on this issue. At first, Dolores was awakened in the middle of the night, and the first line of the voice-over was: Do you remember? It is basically certain that awakening will be achieved by retrieving memories. And what triggers the memory disorder is the famous Shakespeare sentence of Dolores's father: These violent delights have violent ends. This sentence can be counted as a preset activation code, and it can be inferred that Ford is the biggest suspect in leaving this code. In addition, there are certain rules regarding AI (that is, the host in the play) calling memory in the park: when consciousness is under pressure, the version of memory will be switched. In other words, AI's memory is not as required by the company. It is cleaned every time. Some extremely cruel or very beautiful memories are retained. This pot can also be temporarily thrown to Ford, and I will explain later. The old bustard's awakening was triggered by Dolores' famous Shakespearean drama, and then awakened the memory of the nightmare, and when he reached the limit, he woke up by counting 321. The little girl in that village suddenly seemed to have changed someone. She said Maze's location. It was the moment of life or death that triggered another version of her memory and made a new decision. This is also the fun of the game that Ed has been pursuing.
3. What is the identity of Dolores?
The importance of this role will not be repeated. There are two messages in this episode: One is what Lowe (black beard) said, she is a bit different, and her way of thinking is different from other AIs. Second, she began to think about herself in the mirror, awakening the memory that had been confirmed to be deleted. The act of awakening memory by looking in the mirror has obvious metaphors. In scientific experiments, there are famous precedents of apes looking in the mirror. As Lowe said, Dolores is really fascinating.
4. Ford's position on AI?
The answer to this question is the most exciting part of this episode. Although there is not much ink, you can basically see Ford's position. The part of the question is at the end of the episode, whether he dropped the script written by the perverted British screenwriter first, and then arranged a black chapel in his own script. His idea of AI and this paradise is completely different from the so-called company. The company hopes that everything is under control, including budgets, costs, and story arrangements. However, a few lines of Ford express a different point of view: "The guests don't return for the obvious things we do. Visitors come back again. It's not because of the superficial fucking and killing, and the story's direction that has been arranged long ago, but the subtleties that we are not easy to detect, they have never imagined that they have never noticed, or even have deeply fallen in love with. They are not here to find themselves in the paradise, they are here to discover what kind of self they will become." In this paragraph, replacing the word them with AI is simply an essay for AI's awakening! ! Ford hopes that the future is unknowable, and he expects the AI he created to really come alive. The last small church, black, goes a step further, and the implication is probably the hope that AI can have its own beliefs, which is also considered well-intentioned. Dolores is very likely to become the belief of AIs in the paradise.
5. What is the role of Ed?
Judging from the current behavior, it is still high play. I want to clear the game and find all the hidden story lines. It remains to be seen whether there is a deeper intention. But obviously his awareness of paradise is far less deep than Ford.
6. What will happen after AI awakens?
The one who is fully awakened in this episode is the old bustard. After she awakens, she shows confusion, fear, self-defense, and the ensuing thirst for knowledge, just like a normal human being placed in an unfamiliar environment. Dolores' performance is very unusual. She seems to have a deeper city, or the process of inhibiting her awakening is more powerful. She flashed back two memories. The first triggered behavior was to pass the code word to the old bustard, and the second memory was to remember. The memory that has been requested to be erased is picked up, and this is amazing, wait and see.
7. Put aside the architecture in advance. The following is an interpretation of the new role.
8. The new character William.
My guess is that it is most likely an AI, similar to the structure of Inception Space’s multiple dreams. It is an upper and higher level AI, and Paradise is the next level. If it diverges, he may have entered human society in advance. The tested AI came to the old version of the paradise. This is also the first question I have been struggling with, what is the reason for the current human society, because it is related to how ambitious the structure of this story is. To say that he is an AI is not a foolish guess. The reasons are as follows:
A. The way he first appeared on the scene was to wake up from his sleep, which echoes Dolores. It is the way AI wakes up. It is very interesting.
B. The character is named William. , The meaning is warrior, protector, the root is Will, will, autonomous will.
C. It is the first time for him to go to the paradise, but he has a familiar feeling to the things around him. He is not surprised by the exercises and killings that erupt when accompanied by him. He is very calm (perhaps the current human world is already full of exercises and killings)
D. The eye contact between him and Dolores is intriguing. Reminiscent of his name,
there is so much to look forward to in the follow -up. The brains are slightly bigger, welcome to add and discuss.
