Bernard ' s emotions are a simulacrum because they the result of programming a human like response into something that is not human . Bernards true self to Ford is the self with those responses turned off because they aren ' t inherent to the core of the hosts programming and he thinks that they are better for it . The only substantive difference he thinks there is between a human and a host is memory . He keeps the host in line by erasing and justifies it as being for their own good both in terms of the role in the park and in a more general sense . It ' s telling however that he doesn ' t give Bernard a choice in what he remembers or how he remembers it . <| sep |> Ah I see , thank you sir for your answer ! <| sep |> np , i will send you 6 and later maybe i will have more but only maybe xD
