the most hated and yet probably true westworld MIB theory
Here are there reasons why he has always been host. The main clue for me was early in season 2 when he is at the bar with leonard and he does 2 shots quickly and it looked exactly like old bill.
reasons why he has ALWAYS been a host
1. he has no back story ,family , parents, brothers, sisters , nothing before delos
2. he doesn't like the humans, he hates Logan even on the train on the way in
3. isn't there a scene where Teddy sits and waits for the human sex session in Mariposa, isn't there an exact same scene with William later , I forget where, but he's just waiting , like sex means nothing to him really
4. his wife asks him if he's real and he doesn't really answer her
5. he attempts to kill Logan in a very 'host' way , not being able to do it, but putting someone naked on a horse is something Angela would be proud of
6. he always protects the hosts, even the annoying one, we are led to believe that he 'gets it' but we know its kindred protection .. why be that way on the very first trip
7. it was a military style plan hatched by Ford after Arnold killed himself. infiltrate delos with a patsy
8. he drinks a ton and never gets wasted , and recently he's been shot a lot and never dies
9. how does Ford know everything about the Delos immortality project, who is his mole? its William.
10. he goes to the park every year to get updated and "aged"
11. he doesn't seem to enjoy anything that humans do , doesn't rabble rouse, doesn't tell jokes, doesn't think the park is that great for human reasons, but he immediately falls in love with a robot which makes sense if he's a robot too and they are capable of love. (maeve hector)
12. angela tells him, if you can't tell does it matter ... she's talking about him too
13. his profile said 002 at the top , dolores is 1 , and william is 2.
14. Ford needed to kill off the delos board and the ownership and william killed the family for him.
15. all the host theories about MIB fail because Delos failed and Fore didn't even bother, this one would work.
16. they should his hands a lots - the directors - thats the host give away
just like bernard is a copy of arnold but only because dolores taught him how to be , william is a host that literally thinks he's human and is aware of the hosts . Most of the hosts aren't aware of the hosts, so i think thats an interesting nuance similar to Bernard.
reasons that william was a human at one point
1. he has a daughter - there plenty of semen at westward, im sure they could of figured that out - doesn't have a whole family so they only had to figure it out once
2. it would suck for the story - i disagree , i think the loose ends tie up better in this case, if he's just an dark person or is a host now, both of those concepts are just character stuff, white hat to black hat to white hat again , thats such a snoozer, darth vader did that much better
3. william is evil and only a human could do that kind of damage - def not true
i dunno , i think its cool that Ford put a robot into the real world (he wanted to with Maeve) as a plan to infiltrate Delos .

I think it's far more plausible that William is real, achieves this on his own, and then Ford somehow creates a Robo-William and replaces the real one.
- We've seen the simunitions not affect him
- We've seen him interact with Maeve, who clearly has the ability to easily identify hosts as she did with Bernard
- It's clearly stated that the tech didn't work, and as mentioned above it's far too much to say he's been a host from day 1
Clearly at some point they've tried, and I suspect that is in the future. Emily is far more up in the air, she could be human all through or host all through or half-and-half, we haven't seen enough to know.
