  The black hole final state proposal implements manifest unitarity in the
process of black hole formation and evaporation in quantum gravity, by
postulating a unique final state boundary condition at the singularity. We
argue that this proposal can be embedded in the gauge/gravity context by
invoking a path integral formalism inspired by the Schwinger-Keldysh like
thermo-field double construction in the dual field theory. This allows us to
realize the gravitational quantum channels for information retrieval to
specific deformations of the field theory path integrals and opens up new
connections between geometry and information theory.
