The basic premise The Matrix got wrong was that it would be the machines doing the enslaving.#PeopleFarming #capitalism #BigTech #SiliconValley #VC

@aral we're closer to the thinking machines controlled by other people that caused the Butlerian Jihad in Dune.

@aral I'm currently reading Replika. The people create the machines and then just... Decide to let the machines create a fake world for them to live in...

@aral In the allegory of The Matrix I don't think the machines are 100% meant to only reflect machines.The message (where there is one) isn't "Your computer is going to be a fascist" it's "Your computer is going to aid a fascist".But mostly I think they just wanted to make a cool movie and worked their way backwards from there into an allegory for bonus points.

@aral I haven't managed to "acquire" it just yet but I watched the trailer and the answer to your question is ... NO. Makes climate change documentaries look like Disney.
