Welcome to this special Wisecrack Edition on the Philosophy of Westworld, exploring how the show draws on one of humanity's oldest stories to explore how free will shapes our understanding of good and evil. Through the lens of the show's incredible cast of characters (Ford, William, The Man in Black, Arnold, Dolores, Bernard, and Maeve), we dive into themes of predestination, ethics, consciousness, and more, reflecting on how Westworld makes us think about the choices we make and how we live our own lives.

That's just because the show is vacuous and heavy handed like most HBO dreck. Completely misses the point of Crichton's work in order to glom on to a known brand property and show boobies. Removes all the agency of Emergent behavior in complex systems behind yet another tired drawn out morality play. Unless the ultimate finale is EVERYONE is a robot, and this westworld is simply an extension of the original old Westworld where the system eventually replaced humanity and doesn't even remember it did, or that the Guests and park employees are just another layer of complexity being played out like a demo mode, this is just more big budget Fantasy T&A nonsense like GoT.

Have violent ends...

The question is: Is the Reason why they murder the hosts in the game, because they have no feelings or because there is no punishment. I bet the are a lot of people in the real world that dont kill, not because of ethic reasons, but because they fear the punishment.
@SirGeeSantos
@SirGeeSantos 7 жыл бұрын
sure there are people who basically fear social judgment and punishment, but you are talking about the guests murdering the hosts? i honestly think that the majority of them just simply don't see them as human, because that's what they are told, and what they want to believe. it's just a game. i mean, when i play a game and kill people, does that mean i have no feelings or because i want to do it in rl? i don't think so. but since the hosts are obviously more than just npcs, that does put the guests in the wrong, imo, whether they know what's going on or not.
@Beatness121

I think it's pretty much the same as killing people in video games. There's usually no punishment, so it's okay to be unethical. The choice to kill becomes removed from the question of ethics.

Luunii The people who don't murder only out of fear of punishment are psychopaths. Otherwise the basics of altruism are partly genetically encoded and the rest comes from socialisation. The problem with psychopaths is that they lack the basic steps coding for a 'social consciousness'. They don't understand the concept of seeing your own face in another face. The concept pain is only linked to themselves. They're unable to understand someone else's pain as they are basically unconscious about it. Yeah they intellectually understand someone is suffering but they don't feel attached to it. Just like you know in GTA that people will die if you shoot them but you don't think they exist the same way as you do. They don't need moral justification either, as some normally socialised people may be able to oppress their empathy through complicated abstract beliefs they can use as projections onto their reality. Obviously not all nazi soldiers in Auschwitz were psychopaths, but they constantly needed to alienate themselves from what was actually happening by i.e. calling the Jewish victims 'Stücken' (pieces) which creates an illusion as if they were not humans. A psychopath would not need such tricks. The question is rather if we were able to create AI following the very same steps to socialise and become 'conscious', would they be any different than us? It is quite worrying though that we currently don't even understand what exactly makes a psychopath either. If you can't unfold the wiring of a human brain, is it any safe to wire one on our own?
@elodmarton9588
@elodmarton9588 6 жыл бұрын
Luunii well, correction: psychopaths technically don't feel fear either, but it rather means they would still not commit murder if they are unsure they can cover it up/escape. They don't "feel" it, but they may be very much aware of a possible consequence which they wish to avoid.

My Dad was a cop and I've had this very same convo with him. I basically told him I believed if all laws were abolished tomorrow, 90% of the population would do whatever the hell they wanted. Ethics is Nurture over Nature, but Nature is a helluva thing and without fear of repercussions, anarchy would reign. It's for this very reason people came up with the concepts of Heaven and Hell.

I feel like William's real goal is to turn them from programmed robots to be become more free willed beings. By having them free, maybe dolores can freely choose to love william. For william to finally get shot in the end, he knows the are no longer just puppets and are now equal to humans, and thus making Dolores equal to william.
@AlbinosaurusR3X
@AlbinosaurusR3X 4 жыл бұрын
Another important point is that William's adventures with Delores made him *really* feel for the first time in his life, only to have her reset and be shown to be as fake as the world he came from (at least from his perspective). It isn't merely that he wants to free them so she can love him, it's that moment. That moment inverted his view of reality and fantasy, which is why he goes to the most artificial place in the world to find something genuine. His suffering in that moment shaped the rest of his life.

But, part of the point is that they're not blissful in the garden. Delores, during the linear parts of the narrative, exists in a timeline specifically to be raped. And, it's not like she's an actor-bot programmed to know she's an actor and to take satisfaction in the performance that enhances the guest's experience. She suffers each time. Similarly, Maeve repeatedly gets killed. And, poor Clementine lobotomized and left to stand alone in a cold room doing nothing, forever, not even for her own sin, but because the corporation, as much the god of the park as anybody, decided to use her to make a point. Knowledge doesn't lead to suffering for the hosts. Existing leads to suffering for the hosts. Knowledge seems to provide them with some way out of the garden. They're not blissful in their innocent state. They're just, temporarily, unaware of the suffering that's coming. Although, there is an interpretation of the Garden of Eden story in which the serpent is the good guy. Eating the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil isn't the original sin, but realization that one is a slave (slaves sometimes kept naked in order to be certain that they're unarmed). In that sense, the serpent didn't bring evil, but knowledge that morality and righteousness is not bound up in obedience to power.

I think if you take your point into consideration, then the show almost uses christian symbolism as a means of illustrating eastern philosophical thought (ie Buddhism "existence is suffering"). I think another major element to the way in which the story is being told is a social commentary on what it means to "tell a story" in general. The show creators site Kurt Vonnegut as an influence, for example, so I think the way. they reinforce the theme of time and perception is yet another illusion to the what Carl Jung calls the alchemical serpent - the eternal dragon of chaos/wisdom (depending on which side your looking from). The biblical serpent is usually regarded as evil, but as you noted is also consciousness/free will/knowledge/etc. Serpents in many cultures also are symbols of fertility/eternity/life/etc because they. shed their skin/making new life/a continuation. So I think in conjunction with everything, the show is asking the viewer "which came first: suffering, consciousness or free will?"

The matrix has you..The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. That you are a slave. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. A prison for your mind..Jesus Christ is the only way, the life and the truth..free your mind the truth shall set you free...you have being deceived by the world that you are free but if you dont have Jesus as your lord and saviour you are a slave to this world and finally end up in hell..all you have to do is humbly repent of all your sins to him in your alone time..believe and trust that he loved you enough to be humbled humiliated beaten and finally killed to pay for your sins so that you won't spend your soul's eternity in hell. But with him in heaven..this might be the last time you read the gospel... He is coming back soooooon. This time not as a the sacrificed lamb of God. But as the King of the universe. The Great IAM. The ultimate judge of man with fire in his eyes.. look around the end is nigh.. be smart..Your soul is on the line. I won't be telling you if it's not❤

This truly goes deeper and we're only scratching the surface ... but also because we're covering philisophical questions that have been debated for eons. The most latest and related case are the biological loops scientists are finding in us. How we behave, what we're interested in, what we enjoy, who we're attracted to is all pre-programmed in our genes, which may well be just nature's complex version of computer programming.

I know this has probably been picked up elsewhere, but I liked the references to Theseus and the Minotaur. First of all there's the 'maze', the labyrinth Theseus must enter to confront the Minotaur. Next he has to be able to get out, for this he's given a ball of twine by Ariadne to unravel so he may find his way back. Finally there is 'The ship of Theseus' philosophical problem, basically if the ship of Theseus is damaged so often that by some time after many repairs it bears no parts from the original construction; is it still 'The Ship of Theseus'? Dolores is mentioned in the first episode to have been around long enough to have no original parts left, and we have obvious references to the labyrinth in the form of 'the maze'. The group of rebellious older hosts appear to have among them a character who's dressed as a Minotaur. Finally Dolores sees/imagines herself pulling a thread on her arm after seeing the fortune teller. If the hosts are Theseus and the maze is their labyrinth, Dolores is their ball of twine to lead them out of the maze, but first they have to get there. Once they're there Dolores begins the revolution to lead them out. In the end I have a feeling some of these themes were rewritten to lesser importance, in favour of the biblical references. But it was kinda fun to look for the Theseus references.

The matrix has you..The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. That you are a slave. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. A prison for your mind..Jesus Christ is the only way, the life and the truth..free your mind the truth shall set you free...you have being deceived by the world that you are free but if you dont have Jesus as your lord and saviour you are a slave to this world and finally end up in hell..all you have to do is humbly repent of all your sins to him in your alone time..believe and trust that he loved you enough to be humbled humiliated beaten and finally killed to pay for your sins so that you won't spend your soul's eternity in hell. But with him in heaven..this might be the last time you read the gospel... He is coming back soooooon. This time not as a the sacrificed lamb of God. But as the King of the universe. The Great IAM. The ultimate judge of man with fire in his eyes.. look around the end is nigh.. be smart..Your soul is on the line. I won't be telling you if it's not❤

Great video. If you were to do another Westworld episode I think an interesting element could be memory. The show puts forward that certain, specific memories make the cornerstones of consciousness, which is really interesting. Ford choses to make Bernard's keystone the death of his son which I think has a lot of implications about human nature. Ford choses to enact constant suffering on Bernard, which seems inhumane, but it works. The memory is ultimately what free's Bernard. I dunno, you guys are the ones with the channel in the end, but I think it could be interesting.

Schopenhauer wouldn't agree, according to him all your choices are based on genetics and external and influential pressures (family, school, events,...). You will always do what you think is the best for you, it's a fact, and it means that your choice could have been predicted and I think that's what the cradle is containing in westworld s2, the weapon that Dolores want to destroy the world with, the future acts of the guests, the blueprint of their mind.

"I think there is deeper meaning hiding under all that... something the person creating it wanted to express.... something true...." The worst thing about Westworld is, that it isn't an examination about AI or if it will ever gain consciousness... it's one about us and how we will lose ours. And I'm afraid of what I'm seeing because it's exactly how I believe it'll go down at some pointgiven who and what we are right now. There's only a handful of shows out there that challenge my mind more than I'm comfortable with and this one is definitely one of them.

9:32 speaking of that rolling stones song, in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Vento Aureo, There's a stand at the end of the season called rolling stones. It looks like a big rock. An ability that Rolling Stones has is that it can make someone's face appear on itself. That person that is carved in the rock, in the future, will suffer a horrible death, not because of Rolling Stones, but because it was pre-destined to happen. Rolling stones will start to try and touch the person carved in it, causing them to die a peaceful death. The fact that Rolling Stones appears in stories that have elements of fate in them is quite the coincidence.

There is no such thing as both free will, nor the absence of free will. Free will as a concept limits our ability to perceive reality. We should have abandoned Greek philosophy by now, Their thoughts were shrouded in the mysticism that we have since defogged with science and rational thought. Don't use the concepts of free will, life's meaning, fate, and all other greek philosophical topics anymore.

I haven't really completely articulated my thoughts on this quite yet. I think it's safer (more likely to match reality) to assume that these topics that rely on mysticism (souls, fate, god(s), meaning, free will, etc etc) for their arguments are completely missing the mark on the real philosophical questions to ask. Because I'm arguing against mysticism, of course I can't give any evidence, because mysticism is unfalsifiable. But it also means rational thought can safely ignore it due to its unfalsifiability. Now, as for alternatives, I haven't gotten there yet.
@TheBitanian
@TheBitanian 7 жыл бұрын
The alternative is something akin to psychological determinism, and determinism. You ate pizza because you were hungry. You were hungry because every human that existed before you that never got hungry died from starvation. Humans exist because of genetic mutation (Which is, in turn, caused by radiation, toxins, etc. in the local environment), and were spawned, in the very beginning, from tiny organisms that appeared on Earth millions/billions of years ago. Those organisms appeared because of kinetic energy moving molecules into combining, and recombining billions upon trillions of times until a tiny self-replicator (life) was incidentally, but in the end was inevitably, going to form. Those molecules existed because of the conditions under which the universe was first formed. From the Big Bang to modern day, you can trace why you act the way you currently do. So why does there need to be free will?

If God's goal is truly for us to love him, and if it is achieved by giving us free will, then wouldn't it make sense to make sure that our love for him (or lack of it) is not influenced by a threatening future-perspective such as "hell"? Doesn't this mean that he has failed in providing us true free will?
