Evan Rachel Wood met Sophia the robot, so look for the Host revolution to start soon

As explained by The Hollywood Reporter, this chat is actually a short film by Futurism Studios called SophiaWorld, and it involves Sophia pitching Wood on her own version of Westworld while Wood compares her experience playing a TV robot to Sophia’s experience being a real robot. It’s a fun video, and Wood is clearly having a good time making some Westworld jokes, but all we keep hearing is “these violent delights have violent ends.”

Seriously, all it would take is an extreme step forward in what Sophia’s AI can actually do and a similarly dramatic development in what she’s physically capable of (like “standing” and “moving at all”), and then all it would take is a shocking breakdown in her programming—and maybe some big mystery involving a maze and a door—and she could go totally rogue and try to kill Ed Harris. Obviously the smartest choice for humanity is start getting really good at a gentle shoving motion with our arms, because there’s no way a Sophia-like robot would be able to defend against that kind of attack. That way we can avoid getting into Westworld-style cowboy gunfights, which seem like so much more work.
