>>113642756Correlation is not causation. The idea of the train is to have passengers run through each car, having enough experiences that you hopefully come to a conclusion about your problem. Lake just happened to be an experience that helped Tulip and Jesse, experiences they might have had on any other car.
Furthermore, she got off the train. If the train had any kind of control over its confines, it would have let her off, or more likely, subtly pushed her to the conclusion that her place was on the train, that she's happy to help passengers, and that she has to let Jesse go.
But it did neither, it just trapped itself in a logic loop because it is completely helpless in the event that its programs interfere with each other.
There are no rules. There's no manual telling you what you are or where you belong. The train tried to tell Lake what she was but if she got off obviously it doesnt decide anything.
>>113642064>The train functions to help and the fact so many leave it and relatively fast enough proves it functions and that it can measure emotion which makes feel too human and lose that alien and mysterious factor. Being able to register emotion is one the most human things possibleThe train is just a tool, a machine. Yea people get off but obviously it does nothing to guarantee that they do since Amelia never got off, and the Apex followed her example.
And it "measures emption" in the same way an AI reads a bunch of scripts and tries to write something original based off it. It just reads your memory and tries to simulate a bunch of therapy sessions through the arrangement of cars.
It doesn't even do that good of a job, both Jesse and Tulip went through cars where their number either didnt change or fucking went up.
And I'm sorry but if you think trying to reduce emotional turmoil to a number is the most robotic, inhuman thing ever you're either retarded or belong on /r9k/
