However, since this method was primitive, there is a lot of noise around the actual data and it needs to be refined so that it could be used. According to this theory, the numbers MDR or Macro Data Refinement Department refines in Severance are the code of Kier Eagan’s consciousness , which could be used to upload in a newly created body or on an AI.

Mark and his team are essentially the ‘Humans In The Loop” or HILM who are responsible for training this AI model. If you are wondering why these numbers are grouped into sets of four, we have seen in the show that Keir believed that all life forms on the earth are derived from Four Tempers. However, this is still just a theory that seems extremely plausible so to get the right answers, we will have to wait for Severance Season 2’s plot to be revealed on January 17, 2025. So stay tuned with us for further updates!
