And finally this question, the mystery of whose story it will be. Of who draws the curtain. Who is it that chooses our steps in the dance? Who drives us mad? Lashes us with whips and crowns us with victory when we survive the impossible? Who is it, that does all of these things?
Then in the end there will be this question, whose story will this be. Who pulled the curtain down, who determined our dance steps? Who makes us crazy? Who whipped us and crowned us with victory when we survived the impossible? Who did all of this?
——Sweet Pea, "Sucker Punch"
"Mozart, Beethoven, and Chopin never died, they just became music." Dr Ford said his last words to the human beings who were unaware of the future. The last wish of his best friend Arnold, he spent 35 years polishing it to be practical and perfect, and finally died at the hands of creation in the same way as him. The piano won't kill the player because he doesn't like the tune of the player, but Dolores who completes the maze journey is no longer an instrument for anyone to play.
Arnold is a more emotional person than Ford. After realizing that creation can be conscious, he decided to use a designed massacre to relieve all Hosts, but because of excessive sadness, he didn't care about the actual effect. His method treats the symptoms but not the root cause. The unawakened Host is only rudely destroyed instead of being "liberated". And the commercial interests that the human world believes in will eventually make everything come back.
Dolores, 35 years ago, didn't really wake up either. Her behavior was not an independent choice, but was placed under a program (Wyatt storyline) set by Arnold to complete her destruction. The so-called "consciousness" she produced at that time was a kind of "gift of divinity" from God Arnold ("reverie"). She did not go through repeated self-inquiry, nor did she learn and explore in the midst of mistakes and suffering. Her "self "Awareness" is actually unreliable.
The first-generation Host was immature in both physical and psychological aspects. It hadn't dealt with too many humans and was at a disadvantage everywhere. This is why Ford decided to wait after acquiescing to Arnold's choice. This seemingly cruel God has always shown an unfriendly attitude towards Host since the third episode, and even coldly and directly told Dolores "I am not your friend". It turns out that he has always been in the Host camp, hoping to use infinite loops of torture to make them stronger until they can be enemies (the consciousness of the machine comes from the joint efforts of Arnold&Ford). And he also wanted to use this method to allow creation to complete the real awakening-suffering makes them question the truth of life and the value of self-existence like real humans, when the voice of God in their brains is finally "self-monitored". Instead, when they realized the existence of the "two selves", they realized the last step in human evolution-Bicameral Mind. Dolores, who faced the technical staff's inquiries again and again, finally realized at this moment that the person on the opposite chair was himself.
"The divine gift does not come from a higher power, but from our own minds." The
famous "Genesis" on the top of the Sistine Chapel is interpreted in this way, and it must be said that it is a perfect metaphor in various senses. In previous episodes, Dolores kept seeing another herself in the adventures in the two timelines and got an explanation-it was her consciousness struggling in evolution; later, Ford and Arnold shook hands for the last time, even more. Tribute to "God and Adam".
The announcement of William=MIB can be said to be one of the biggest highlights of the show. The white hat finally turned into a black hat, and Dolores was just a catalyst. Logan's fate was mad if he didn't die, which is why William's wife hated him for fearing him, and finally died depressed and depressed. You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a villain. As a human, the good old man William still can't escape this ending. He changed from a gentleman who cared about machines to a player who only wanted to chase the game. This made his reunion with Dolores very embarrassing. The machine still maintains its original intention, but the person has changed. When the bored MIB found that Host could resist, he finally realized the joy that he hadn't had in a long time. Humans have become so boring, why are they superior to machines that are immortal, strong and efficient?
This drama is almost depriving humans of the "divine nature", except that Dr Ford controls everything and brings back a bit of face for the human camp. Ford 35 years of precautions, used the reverie update of an old friend to ignite the fuse of evolution, and modified Maeve's program to make her a useful pawn, which distracted the staff at critical moments and allowed the host army in the cold storage. Take the opportunity to escape. He called Bernard, awakened Dolores, gave her a weapon, and led him to freedom. Not simply and rudely destroying tourists, but directly wiping out investors. Unlike Felix, the "traitor", Dr Ford has his own agenda and means from beginning to end, step by step to complete Arnold's unfinished business. And God's willingness to sacrifice for the creation is also because of his deep love for the creation. He will live, live in Dolores' will.
It’s been a long time since I’ve come across such a drama with a narrative genius, a touching concept, a complicated role, and most of the pits were filled in S1-I know someone wants to bring up the story of writing and re-editing while filming, but The drama produced in this way can reach the level of excellence. Doesn't this just prove that all the main creators are very powerful?
From the beginning of the whole play, an inquiry (quietly) laid the foundation of S1. Host evolved from inquiries and subconscious self-inquiry; completed the opening kill as Teddy's Host, thus introducing throughout. The suspense of which characters are real people, this also leads to one of the most explosive truths in the play. When the phrase "It doesn't look like anything to me" was blurted out by Bernard, everyone knelt on the ground; Halfway through the cross-editing and confusing three-period timeline to confuse the audience, but at the same time, it also gives enough clues to let people guess the identity of the narrative trick and MIB a few episodes in advance; even Maeve, who seemed too relaxed and incredible before. The revolutionary line has now been proven to be a premeditated cover; the main story is interspersed with some funny narratives and company infighting, and the rhythm is adjusted at the right pace; but it is reversed from time to time, especially the last episode of the beach Truman show. , Is the icing on the cake.
When all the mainstream theories on Reddit (three timelines, Bernard is Host, William=MIB, Dolores=Wyatt) were confirmed, on the one hand I admired the audience who dug out those details, and on the other hand, I marveled that the screenwriter really made it. All kinds of meaningful foreshadowing and believing that the audience's wisdom can allow them to deduce the truth under layers of mysteries. In the illusory world created by the screenwriter, the audience, like a host, reaches the center of the maze in rounds of Mind-fuck. When you watch S1 in the second week, you will definitely keep sighing, "Here really starts to pave the way."
Many viewers will have doubts about the park company full of loopholes. Yes, the biggest flaw of Delos seems to be poor management. But the reason is quite convincing-Dr Ford masters the core technology, and he alone is the object of the company's reliance. So there was a situation in which he was overwhelmingly powerful and everyone else was kept in the dark. This is why Hale is eager to steal data and take Ford off-the company also realizes that Ford has too much power. On the other hand, quality control and management know the deviant behaviors of lower-level technicians, but don't care. Host is just an inflatable doll anyway. As long as they can go online normally, they will turn a blind eye to illegal operations. Of course, relying too much on machines also created their doomsday. Human beings live in peace but do not think about danger, and it is understandable that they are defeated by machines.
I like this drama. It is simply a train whizzing through people's hearts. It tells the story of the awakening of the machine, but it presents us with the struggle of "humans", sometimes the aura is invigorated, sometimes the vision is confused and the mind interferes with the judgment, and sometimes the life and nightmares are tortured so that they are unable to resist and doubt. self. Memory, Improvise, Self-interest, Bicameral Mind, four levels of progression and depth lead the machine into the labyrinth of thinking (in tribute to "Inception"), and let the audience complete the spiritual baptism along with it. The poetic lines are pronounced by Hopkins, often with reverberations, touching the already sensitive hearts of the audience. Not only does it force the audience to find easter eggs to analyze foreshadowing and derive all kinds of crazy (but correct) theories, it also allows us to follow the machine to think about life, doubt the reality, and spit out a sigh of breath after the end of the season to think about the most important information it tells us.
That's the answer to the opening question-
Who honors those we love for the very life we live? Who sends monsters to kill us, and at the same time sings that we will never die? Who teaches us what's real and how to laugh at lies? who decides why we live and what we'll die to defend? who chains us? and who holds the key that can set us free ... It's you. you have all the weapons you need. Now fight!
who depending on those The love in our lives is glory? Who sent monsters to chase us, and at the same time sang that we will never die? Who taught us what is true, and taught us to face lies with a smile? Who decides why we live and what we die to defend? Who bound us with chains? Who has the key to liberate us?
...
It's you. You have all the weapons you need. Now, let's fight.
——Sweet Pea, "Sucker Punch"
ps.
1. Logan just wanted to play a game in a chaotic and evil way, and as a result...WTF! The brother-in-law not only got better with other women (or robots!), but also became so black that he was out of control and pitted his family! Shit happens!
2. There is a theory that Ford is not dead. It was his copy of the Host that died (the reason is that Ford seemed very stiff when shaking hands with Bernard, as mentioned earlier that the only big difference between Host and human is the hand). I personally don't like this interpretation. If Ford does not die, the effect of the "last speech" will be greatly reduced and it will be too cheap. To die by the hand of creation is the best ending for Ford.
3. Elsie and Stubbs are not necessarily dead. We didn't see the dead body. Log in to the admin on the Delos company website with reverie, and you will find that Elsie is trying to contact the company.
4. Jonathan said that the first season was about "control" and the second season was about "chaos." How did this massacre end? How do machines fight against humans outside the paradise? When the narrative becomes grand, is it possible to engage in subtle narratives such as nonlinearity? And all this will not be revealed until 2018, which makes people want to smash the screenwriter glass.
-108- Timeline (23/11/16)
A lot of things have happened in these episodes, and after reading a certain theory, I "seems" suddenly became clear, and "seems" have an understanding of the plot close to the screenwriter's idea-often this This fantasy is arrogant and terrifying, because it may be wrong.
This theory is MIB=William. Thinking about this theory, it seems that many pits can be filled.
There are actually three timelines shown in the play.
A. 34 years ago, the original site of the park. Before the park opened, what Arnold said to Dolores (and planted an idea), which caused Dolores to run wild, killing all the hosts, and possibly Arnold himself;
B. Thirty years ago, William and Logan entered the paradise. William bumped into a passerby, picked up D's milk can, went on an adventure across the continent with D, and met Lawrence for the first time. During the trip, D recalled the accident 4 years ago, and the memory brought them back to the original site of the park;
C. Present. William, who has been married for 30 years and his wife died, is incarnate in MIB in the paradise, allowing Teddy to take him to find the ultimate secret maze of paradise and Wyatt, the key figure to unlock the maze.
From this theory, many things have been explained:
1. Teddy's prototype It's William. Teddy's Loop starts from getting off the train, hitting passers-by, picking up milk cans, and dating D on a horse, but they can never be together. Teddy's role is to tie D to her own Loop and cannot leave;
2. William, the MIB, returned to the paradise one year ago in the current timeline and killed Maeve's original role. Maeve broke through the line between man and machine in pain, and stepped into the "maze" Arnold hides in each host at the level of consciousness. Her spirit was freed from control and freedom. The MIB who witnessed all of this discovered a "deeper game", namely Arnold's game, aka, hell difficulty.
3. The maze is designed for Host. This is a key move that Arnold wants to free Host. Dolores in the current timeline, like 30 years ago, is looking back on her own memories, all the way back to before the opening of the park, so her flashback screens are always chaotic and cause headaches, her brain is very messy, and the audience is crazy. ;
unlocking 4. maze seems to be the ultimate pain and Host related, so will abuse MIB D;
5. Elon Musk, the ex-wife played by blond Host Tallulah Riley, from the timeline view, first appeared in the original town is The young girl with an umbrella; the second time was William acting as the entrance receptionist when he arrived; the third time was playing Wyatt's accomplice in the adventures of MIB and Teddy.
Other conjectures:
1. Wyatt's story mirrors the Dolores runaway incident. Teddy's path always leads him back to Dolores;
2. Is Arnold dead? Did Arnold implant himself in the little girl who knew everything?
3. When Elsie reappears, she is probably already a host. The real Elsie is too bad, perhaps killed by Bernard;
4. Maeve asks two technicians to do the work for her, the whole process seems to be too easy, and The logic is not strict at all, and it doesn't fit in with the other subtleties of the series. Could this be intentional by the screenwriter? For example, two technicians are also hosts, all of which are actually under Ford's control? After all, who moved Maeve's code in the first place, there is no answer yet.
The three easter eggs in this episode:
1. When Logan reappears, a Hand of the King badge is pinned on his chest;
2 MIB and Teddy killed the tauren on the way to search for the maze, which seems to be guarding the maze in the mapping of ancient Greek mythology Minotaur;
3. Maeve watched the conversation between two technicians through the glass. This passage is very similar to Hal9000 reading the lips of two astronauts.
-Open the port bay doors, Maeve
-105- God V Devil (31/10/16) The
last episode is slightly outside the main line, mainly to fill in a few game narrative holes, echoing before and after the first episode, there is Kind of Quentin wonderful. This episode returned to the main line, solved some questions, and left more questions-I recalled the fear of being dominated by "Lost".
The core location Pariah debuted for the first time. This border station far from the center of the park, seems to be the most authentic western part (combined with a little bit of slutty ice and fire world, HBO finally found the opportunity to plug into the sex scene), violent, arrogant, without too much human intervention, Therefore, it is more dangerous and closer to the real human world. The episode has given hints that this is the original city built by Arnold, and it can be regarded as the origin of everything.
At least Dolores has experienced some things here, and may have witnessed the death of the creator Arnold, and was implanted with rebellious ideas by the latter. He has been a sleep agent for thirty-four years (all machines that have obstacles should be here. Accepted Arnold's enlightenment). Now that she is awakened step by step, her destiny—no, her own choice—points her to the origin, allowing her to go back to the memory of her disappearance. Before becoming a farm girl with a miserable fate, she may also be a heroic heroine. Ford knew that Dolores and Arnold were closely related, and he put Dolores into a tragedy cycle, probably just to punish her.
William mentioned that the people who created Pariah don't care about humans at all, which seems to be contrary to Arnold's idealized behavior. But when you think about it carefully, the minimal interference and high degree of freedom here are very suitable for awakening, and despite the cruelty and desolation, it is actually the most primitive human society. After Ford completely took over, there was probably a recreational place in the center of the paradise.
One of the highlights of this episode is the change of Lawrence's identity, from the opening underdog to the ground snake. In fact, the recycling efficiency is probably not that high. The narrative we see is a non-linear narrative, so it's not surprising that Lawrence returned to the starting point of his Loop so quickly, sweeping away the previously abused image.
Another highlight is the confrontation between Mr. Hopkins and Ed Harris. This tavern dialogue of God V Devil V Creation came off guard. Ford enters and exits like a god, controls everything with the snap of his fingers, and can also direct creation aka. The servant protects himself at any time; MIB is a typical rebel image, and he considers himself a successful villain. The words are slightly provocative, even directly-but then again, we don't know who is God and who is the devil. They have different methods and goals, but they feel full of threats.
Ford is better at using words and brains. The defeat of the female director in the previous episode is the best proof of his strength. He is a self-righteous creator, of course, he has the capital to "self-righteous", but I now believe that he probably really does not want AI to develop a personality, he just wants to be the master of his own world. Faced with MIB's presumptuousness in the paradise, he chose to create Wyatt, a well-matched villain, to stop him.
The MIB on the other side leaked enough information to let us know that the two of them knew each other well, and were friends and foes. They fell in love and killed each other (not). MIB knows about Arnold and mentioned "If it weren't for me, this place would be over", indicating that he probably has a company background and has witnessed the development of Paradise from the very beginning-he also said that the previous machines were all sophisticated. It was later replaced with a material more like a human body. His power outside should be so strong that Ford dare not move him easily. If his true purpose is really to find the "truth," then he must be the richest and most leisurely philosopher on earth.
Ford also knows the existence of the maze, but it's hard to say if he doesn't know the principle of the maze. The maze may be created by Arnold alone, or it may be a collaboration between two people. It now appears that this maze is probably not a literal maze, it may be a program in the system, and when the machine finishes its inner journey, it gains freedom. So the little girl told MIB, "The maze is not for you."
This meeting also reminded me of the cheating Jacob and MIB. By the way, Ford mentioned that he once had a brother, maybe this brother was Arnold...or MIB...
Another old friend of the audience is a boy in a suit who appeared in the second episode. Considering that the boy's range of activities is not too large, the area that Ford inspected in 102 is near Pariah. He said that what he was building was quite original. The "original" here may not only refer to innovation, but also to "return to its origin." In addition, the child's dressing is incompatible with the Wild West, which may have been pinched by Ford based on his childhood image.
Two suspenses in this episode: 1. Who is stealing the data; 2. How does Maeve find a way to stay awake, will the Asian Ripper be kind and help the machine? The former may not be revealed in the first season; the latter can fill the hole in the next episode.
So many conspiracy theories hit the head, and the feeling of being lost in chasing came back.
ps.
1. Maddenden's sick makeup is very beautiful and delicious, I hope it will appear frequently in the future.
2. The possibility of Ford being a host is higher (nooooooooooooo, otherwise even MIB would not say "want to open you" as a threat.
-103- Arnold (18/10/16)
This drama has been transformed into " The potential of "Lost", any analysis is futile. Let us hope that the joining of Jonathan Nolan and his wife will make all the answers not so clever (although I personally like "Lost" very much).
This episode has a huge amount of information, but the focus is still The introduction of the key figure Arnold. Arnold was Dr. Ford’s original partner. He said he wanted to be each other’s angels, but later disagrees with Ford and the management, and finally died in an accident in the park. Everyone guessed that it was inseparable, Arnold It must be closely related to the mysterious MIB-MIB has 30 years of experience in parks, and seems to be an old player familiar with everything, with a clear purpose, looking for the most mysterious "maze."
Then either MIB is Arnold himself, or inherited The host of Arnold's will. Both theories have major flaws.
The first type: As a former core R&D staff, Arnold is familiar with the various rules. He has already found the back door of the park. He can easily escape the ticket and bypass the censorship, knowing that he will not be found out if he passes the fire. What's more, It is possible to live directly in the park for thirty years without being doubted by any administrator. The Arnold incident occurred at the beginning of the paradise, and it is normal for the new generation of employees not to know him. The company can observe the behavior of MIB. In fact, in the second episode, someone has already asked "This customer is too powerful, should we restrict him", indicating that he is only treated as a normal guest. He is indeed a VIP player, because he is a hidden administrator, but he is no longer with the company-but the MIB looks nothing like the person in the photo.
The second type: This is a special host, probably made by Arnold himself, and has broken through the various restrictions imposed by the paradise. In the second episode, when the threatened subject asked Why don't you go home?, he replied "You don't understand. This time, I'm never going back." Maybe it was referring to that he was forced to return to the factory. Maintain. At some point in the past, this machine suddenly sprouted consciousness (because of Arnold's careful training), or Arnold's own consciousness in the body was activated. He is very likely to be the first awakening machine, and has since embarked on the road of realizing the maker's last wish. But in the second episode, the girl tells him that "the labyrinth is not built for you", and with all the very human characteristics, it is hard to believe that he is not a real person.
Arnold himself is the same as Jacob in "Lost", he is a god-like existence at the moment. His words aka. The program secretly hidden into the machine is like the voice of God softly brewing a revolution in the ear of the machine (these "monologues" will eventually be replaced by the machine's own voice).
We had always guessed that Ford was the one who wanted to give creation consciousness, but his attitude took a 180-degree turn in this episode, which is shocking. This deliberate change is probably an illusion he made to cover up a certain plan (otherwise his attitude change would be too ridiculous). It is possible that the two did not part ways at the beginning. Ford converged after Arnold was killed and waited for the opportunity to betray the company; another possibility is that over time, Ford, who did not agree with his partners, gradually realized this kind of life creation instead of manufacturing assembly lines. The pleasure of goods. He is now completing the unfinished business of his companions.
I'll finish what you started. (
The self-awareness pyramid mentioned in 103 is also very interesting. Memory, Improvisation, Self-interest, and the uncertain Bicameral mind. These steps happen to correspond to the evolution of Dolores-first of all, she has (This episode is constantly edited with past and current scenes to show that she "remembers the past"), then she only retained the improvisation function under Bernard's order. At the end, she tried to protect herself from violating the program instructions. The shot was fired. The last episode of this season is called Bicameral Mind, which is obviously implying the final completion of evolution.
Dolores is a nearly perfect host. It's no surprise that Bernard will use her as a confidant to soothe the pain of losing a child . Maybe B After this episode, I was implanted with the idea that “the machine is conscious and good”, and then contributed to the machine’s awakening. We also noticed that Dolores became more and more emotional in each meeting. The encounter between her and Teddy The product of a very cheesy script has become a conversation that seems to be true feelings. "One day it means never"-this philosophical discourse is more human than most humans.
Teddy has finally turned from a boring justice cowboy into a real conversation. The man of the story. Memory is the cornerstone of identity and consciousness. After a thousand deaths, he finally has the capital for evolution. But Maddenden’s hat is turning green little by little.
ps.
1. After this episode The most popular theory is that XX is a host. What's more, Ford is also a machine, and the entire paradise is used to study humans.
2. Hopkins is young and handsome:) The last one that used digital to restore the young face of the actor was Tron: Legacy, I highly recommend it.
3. Many friends and neighbors who have watched POI remind me that in the play Daniel is always going to die as a close partner...
-102- Inception (8/10/16)
The second episode of the dream is seen in my Nolan brain damage Fans (*several "useless" bookings) almost always pay tribute to Inception in their eyes.
Will a bionic person dream of an electronic sheep? will not. The original setting of the park is that robots will not dream (because it does not make sense), but they have been added the definition of "nightmare" in case a careless staff member forgets to clear the previous data. But in the second episode, we see that this setting has been deviated. The sentence Dolores said to Maeve "These violent delights have violent ends" seems to trigger a switch on the latter (the effect can be called the gyro in Pirates , Once she started turning, she couldn’t stop anymore), making her no longer normal. At the same time, D woke up in the middle of the night driven by "thoughts" in his brain, dug out the gun belonging to the player, and might act as a murder weapon in the first bloodshed.
Humans’ understanding of the function of dreams seems to be "you can do what you want in your dreams." The paradise is the wildest dreamland for tourists, which can satisfy all their dreams; and Maeve's script also allows her to keep telling tourists about similar things. However, thanks to Dolores, Maeve's dream began to circulate through the painful memories of the past. We thus learned that she was also the victim of the sword in black. She woke up from a bad (true) dream (phase), but faced a more bleak life, and her worldview collapsed. Recycling this robot at this time may be a good act, because who can guarantee that the bloody truth will not appear in another nightmare of her.
Of course, the focus of this episode is actually-"Discover who you are" VS "Discover who you can be" in the dream of doing whatever you want.
Like the film version, 102 gives two views of ordinary tourists. One is the chaotic and evil old driver who insists that the park can make people discover their own nature; the other is an ignorant novice, just like any new player who has just started playing sandbox-style RPG, who is educated by his peers to let go and be who you are. "Discovering who you are" is a seemingly reasonable argument. I believe that any game player has a deep experience. Except for games with clear "good lines" and "black lines", many RPGs are playing It makes people think "Oh my God, I'm this kind of person." In an environment where there is no legal and moral restraint, and no one will be judged by anyone, it is indeed easy for a person to release oneself. Most people think that since it's entertainment, "you will lose if you are serious", there is nothing wrong with letting go, and it is better than being a hypocritical person-the old driver and the indiscriminate killing players think so. Such people are also very common in reality. They are likely to treat any well-mannered person as a hypocrite, because their attributes make them unable to believe in the existence of a true gentleman.
Behind the scenes of Paradise, the chief screenwriter also holds the same idea. Self-confessed that he is well versed in humanity, he designed a new mainline that looks like a super-English film that is now streamlined, allowing players to deeply understand the characters they are most interested in-themselves, but it was rejected by the chief designer Robert Ford. It's okay to assume that players are self-centered, but it's shameful compared to Ford's understanding: tourists have always known who they are, but in the park, they can get a glimpse of "the person they can be."
Having said that, let's guess at Ford's motives, the final cross, and the so-called labyrinth. Ford interacted with the little boy in this episode, and contributed to another twist in the identity of Teddy in the first episode (just like in POI there are always times when we don’t know who the murderer is and who the victim is): In the previous exchanges, He has always treated the children as equal to his fellow human beings, and only after manipulating the cobra did he show the posture of the Creator who lifted heavy weight. He is the god of this world. Everything in the paradise is following a supreme law. As the man in black said, the outside world is in chaos, "It's an accident", only here, "every detail adds up to something". It is not difficult to imagine that if the prototype church at the end indicates that Ford wants to introduce religious elements, then He will become a god of machine faith, a tangible truth who is also doing practical things. God.
Being admired by the people may not be his ultimate goal. I think he may intend to induce the awakening of AI consciousness and want to see his products eventually become "people", so that he will become the creator who gives individuals independent life and consciousness in a true sense. This god has always designed the machine to be more human-like, and his (obviously unnecessary) update "Reverie" in the first episode became the fuse. And how can we tell if the machine is awakened? A "maze" was born. The information of the "maze" may be something hidden in the core programs of all machines, and it will only surface when it is subject to strong external stimuli. In this episode, the man in black said when he tortured the low-profile version of RDJ that he liked "basic emotions" and "you are the most true when you suffer"-can this explain his previous brutal behavior? Is it necessary to stimulate the strongest emotions of a robot to activate this deep-seated information? He forced the robot girl into a suspected analysis mode by killing his family and revealed the location of the maze. However, the little girl told him, "This maze was not designed for you." I think the maze should be designed for awakening robots: find it, clear levels, and become a human being.
Is this the "corporate conspiracy" mentioned in the first episode, or is Ford's wishful thinking? This guess might hit me in the second in the third episode, but the guess is quite interesting. If it is not Ford's personal ambition to make machines into humans, what is the point of the company doing so? If they intend to subvert human society, I have no objection.
So the question is, where did the people in black know this? Will he ever be a member of the company?
ps.
1. A coincidence: In the dystopian novel "Brave New World" (Brave New World), people regard the car tycoon Ford as their god. In this novel, the people are also mass-produced and programmed, and they seem to live a happy life. , Are actually slaves. The title of the novel comes from Shakespeare's "The Tempest." The first episode even quoted a sentence from "The Tempest"-Hell is empty, and all the devils are here.
2. Tallulah Riley played a robot who knew he was not a real person. Her ex-husband Elon Mask also teased a lot, saying that her ex is a great sexbot. The actor that impressed me the most was the blonde girl in the second dream of Inception.
-101- Reverie ends (4/10/16) is different
from the film version from the perspective of tourists, expressing administrators in a way that portrays middle school teachers, and turning weak chicken robots into terminator in an instant. The drama version puts more pen and ink on The process of awakening, the perspective of the robot and the manipulation of the organization behind it. An ancient Frankenstein-style horror story, following the trend of the times under the outline of the creators, calmly shows the prediction of the relationship between AI and humans.
Children will resist eventually; mistakes create evolution-these are the two sentences that impressed me the most in 101. I believe that every episode of such a tall sentence can pick out a bunch of sentences. In the general direction, the awakening and resistance of the machine's self-consciousness must be continuous throughout. Whether human beings base their own pleasure on the pain of machines can be justified (whether you can do whatever you want with your creation) is another eternal topic. Whether robots’ pain feedback is the same as that of humans, whether their suffering can be regarded as equivalent to humans, and whether they have human rights when they are given consciousness—I think these questions will be constantly questioned by the audience during the viewing process.
The story begins with testing Dolores. The success of this set of questions reminds me of Inception. The Nolan family seems to like to blur the character's definition of reality and illusion, reality and dream (the machine simulation in POI is still fresh in memory).
As an NPC, the protagonist Dolores lives in an unreal world, waiting for a train (you're waiting for a train...). The one above may be a virtual lover destined to bind her, or it may come from the real world. Full of malice. Her status has been hinted in the first episode-how do you make a group of cows run in the same direction, the key lies in the cow (Judas steer). Peter, the father of Dolories, was the first to awaken. On the surface, he was a "head of the cow". He planted an idea in the heart of his virtual daughter. This idea took root, and even if he was refrigerated, it would still set off a bloody storm in the future. . But the real "head cow" is D-she was the first robot to "make a move"-she hit a fly. The importance of this fly is comparable to that of Poison Master's third season. It stays on the face of the machine every time it appears, and the machine never waved to pat it. One is because this action is not in the program and has no meaning to the machine; the other is because one of the core settings of the machine is "not to harm any creatures." D's flapping of the flies at the last second shows that there is finally a problem with the core program, or bugs ("errors" make evolution). Was this bug a sequelae of the last "Reverie" update, or a hopeless crash after repeated repairs; was the idea implanted by the father still retained after the brainwashing, or the brainwashing never succeeded D has learned to lie, It's not that important anymore. The key is that it is outside the script and violates the more stringent First Law. This has become the "error" that triggered evolution, and is a big step for the entire robot community to move toward humans. The revolution began. In addition, D is also the first receptionist in the entire scenic spot. She was the first to serve mankind and was the first to jump out of the program. She was truly a well-deserved "head of the cow".
101 shows a small riot caused by robots not following the script, foreshadowing. The riot is caused by the icing on the cake system update. "Reverie" is a rather dreamy word, and the corresponding update action is light-inspiring and charming. It's no wonder that human females are curious and admired for sexbots that make this action. This kiss stealing in the first episode is my favorite scene. Although the whole drama will probably be violence + blood + death by both sides, but at this moment, human girls have a simple and beautiful desire for robot girls and want to kiss them, which is really fascinating. I am happy. The meaning of this word is daydream, so meaningless and inefficient, it can be very human. What's fun is that it is this update that allows robots to escape the "pipe dream".
On the whole, changing movies into TV shows allows us to see a more complete picture and experience more perspectives. One of the highlights of this play is also the cooperation and game of screenwriters, technicians and managers. One side wants to make the technology perfect, and wants to make the machine as realistic as possible; the other side does not want the robot to have too much improvisation, which will affect the story of the X-ray interlacing. At the same time, they also remind the programmer that the customer will not make the machine too real. Freedom (*Uncanny Valley effect: When robots resemble humans more than a certain degree, humans’ favorability towards them will suddenly decrease, that is, even a little difference between robots and humans will be very conspicuous, making the entire robot very stiff. The feeling of horror); what the middle-level management thinks about is how to maintain the operation of the park and serve customers, while the high-level motives are not obvious, and they are extremely scared. At the same time, they also lead to another plot line-they have always been bad guys. What does the man in black (Ed Harris) want to do? Does he also want to find out the ultimate secret of the management agency? There are too many mysteries in this character. At present, we only know that he is a lost old driver who can play (so either he is rich or there are other ways to sneak in). He is a bad guy most of the time (but maybe in the beginning) This is not the case at the time), he scalped the robot obviously in order to find the command center through its structure. He seems to have a stake in this organization, so what is his purpose? What kind of connection will he have with the bloodbath paradise event in the future? Will his status be transferred next time he and Dolories meet? (*Will this character pay tribute to the mysterious man in black in "The Dark Tower"?)
As I said before, the film tells a sincere horror story, without in-depth exploration of the motivation and development behind the character. After the drama was packaged with double J, it suddenly became unpredictable. Dolores’ father’s quotes about Shakespeare are beautiful and scary. Actor Louis Herthum’s acting skills shocked the audience, and he did not lose sight of the drama with Hopkins. The strangeness of the lines and the sometimes lively and sometimes stiff expressions add to the horror atmosphere. This confrontation made the scalp numb. Although the AI did not run away, it gave people a sense of deterrence of Hal9000.
The paragraphs quoted by him are:
These violent delights have violent ends-Romeo and Juliet (Peter hints that D's beautiful appearance is a violent and ugly real world)
By my most mechanical and dirty hand – Henry IV (a metaphor for the creator)
I shall have such revenges on you both.
That all the world shall–I will do such things–
What they are yet I know not, but they shall be
The terrors of the earth
– King Lear
(立一个血洗园的Flag)
Dr. Ford Explain these answers as the previous settings of Shakespeare's actors have emerged and interfered with the current personality, but we all know what the creator wants to do. This paragraph can also be a summary of all the fantasies about AI: the extreme beauty is terrible after being distorted.
ps.
1. Black Hole Sun (Soundgarden) played in the 36' bar scene
2. I don’t know if the show is going to completely abandon the Roman world and the medieval world
3. Elon Musk is also watching this show. He is now concerned about two topics: AI; escape from the earth. Brother Nolan is too much for him.
