I love Neo's confidence, dude just walks up to the leader of the machines in the machine city thats been at war against humanity for centuries and is like "listen dude, this is how its gonna go down".
@@yurimodin7333 This. and also he knew that he had the upper hand in the argument, the machines no longer had control over Smith. they either accepted the deal or they would also be wiped out.
For me it's better when you remember that Neo is a program that learned to be human and is controlling a human body. Deus Ex literally had one of his own subjects walk up to him and say "Listen, you're a fucking Tool. Now let me clean up this mess and in return you leave the humans alone."
@@yurimodin7333 That was always my thought. He actually needed Trinity to die to get to that point where it was only about stopping Smith and making peace between humans and machines.
@@AJitati0n The Matrix has parallels to Gnostic Christianity. There is, if I remember correctly, a group that similarly thought that Judas was of extreme importance because jesus needed to be betrayed to make the sacrifice. That is, to fulfill his role as the Lamb, he had to have to other actors play their parts. So, Judas, in this light, wasn't the evil person, but, a necessary actor in the story. Trinity can be viewed the same way then. She played her role in getting Neo to make his sacrifice. I believe this is in the Gospel of Judas but I can't quite remember
I think Neo's response, "I won't" when Deus Ex Machina asks, "and if you fail?" is a rejoinder to The Architect saying, "we won't" after Neo says "if I were you, I'd hope we don't meet again" - Deus Ex Machina even smirks at the irony of the reposte.
My interpretation was always that Ex Machina was simply a collective council of machine individuals that were in charge, just as the humans of Zion had a council that ruled them.
I would love an indepth live action of the Second Renaissance parts 1 and 2 from the Animatrix. I want to see the creation of A.I and how life was among humans and machines in the 22nd century. Going all the way to the eventual trial of B166ER and the starting of the machine exodus and the War with 0-1.
Personally, I think Animatrix is the best part of the Matrix series alongside with the Matrix 1. Its ideas were way ahead of its time and far deeper than what we have got in Matrix sequels...
"It is done." is a quote from the Bible, from either John 19:30 (depending on the translation "done" or "finished") Jesus' last words, or from Revelations 21.6 said by a figure on a throne who can be identified as Jesus resurrected. Both quotes could be interpreted as Jesus saying that the old ways of Hebrew sacrifice are over, that the final sacrifice has been made, and a new way of worship will commence. This fits with Neo being held up as though on a crucifix by the machines, that Neo's sacrifice will mark a new understanding between machines and humans. Great vid as always.
People keep guessing what the "It" means in "It is finished", but reading the context, it just means His death, or that His human life was finished. That's all that means, anything spiritualized is inserted, but not actually in the text strictly.
Theologian here: "It" is in reference to the finalization of the Mosaic Covenantal system of Law that Jesus (God Incarnate) fulfilled by being placed up on the cross (which is WAY too long to sum up here!). The short answer is that the reference to "It is finished" or "Done" means that the previous Covenant had been fulfilled and the new Covenant (or order) commences. It's a transitional statement.
@@boedye Unless you can actually show the text or verse that says that it is finished actually has anything to do with the covenant, the immediate context of the verse just means His death. If one reads Hebrews, it is when Christ spreads the blood on the mercy seat AFTER it is finished that matters for the new testament of blood (not to be confused with the new covenant, which many people do), and since Jesus did not yet ascend to the Father immediately in the resurrection, it took longer than three days.
@@SamGarcia I already stated that I'm not going to get into it, as it is way too long to sum up here. That being said, yes, Hebrews is a good place to start in understanding what "it is finished" refers to. That being said, what do you suppose was "finished"?
@@SamGarcia Sam, a flat literal reading of the text is the shallowest assessment, and the least accurate approach to a book filled with poetry, allegory, and subtext. When Jesus mentions the lilies of the field, do you really think he's talking about flowers?
He lost his human-sight and gained cyber-sight. He adapted to see the world the way machines do through the use of tschno-telepathy. Don't forget that Neo is a human that naturally evolved and adapted in the Matrix. Remember when Morpheous told him if he was breathing air? Exactly. You are viewing reality based on human concepts and limitations. You have much to learn young padawan.
@@tactknightgaming2066 even with cyber sight, all neo could see is this yellow sun, not the baby face. So you are out of context here... but maybe you felt too eager to call someone "young padawan" to think before typing.
@@tactknightgaming2066 machines don't see the world like that though, it's all green lines of code they see not yellow or radiant. Neo achieved "cyber sight" in the first Matrix...I mean the VERY first.
@@tactknightgaming2066 what makes you think he "evolved"?... remember there were many other NEOs before this one...perhaps he was programmed with it after a few times the Matrix reset, perhaps it was encoded in the Red pill he took the one of many times. Remember he didn't take just one red pill he took possibly hundreds and that's not even counting the NEOs that took the blue pill and decided to stay in the fantasy.
It’s the singular consciousness that spawned an entire race of machines as Morpheus said in the first film when teaching Neo the history of what happened to the real world.
Agree on that being the history of the real world but they evolved and wanted to be recognized as independent beings with rights and a land to call their own. Morpheus bias or hatred rather is also keeping him from giving Neo the full and nuanced picture as we know from Animatrix.
as a species machines are new to sentience and new to emotion on a grand scale unlike humans who have been sentient beings for eons. I belief that is why they Ex Machina has a baby face and the sentient programs like Smith, Merovingian and his wife, The Oracle, and others lie, and retaliate irrationally when they act on human emotion.
@@veg0machine its got to do with trust and such right? pandoras box control what to teach experiece in emotion as u said think elon musk was also scared for this then again he might be contributing on speeding it up :D its same story as with friend i told about my special dream when 1 seeks for answers and doesnt understand what does it do and does it ust bring us back even further having to repeat ourselves again and again so ye what makes sense what feels right what is the next step going on :)
.... check out the ending of doom video games, silent hill movie... South park imagination land, Stargate....... then.... after you check those out first!! Then check out... cern...I know yall know about cern.. but look at it again after
Yes, but the key to what Morpheus said there is the meaning he was using for Singular. He didn't mean that Singular("ONE") consciousness copied itself onto all the duplicate machines in the race. He was referencing The Singularity - a common science term referring to when a technology is advanced enough to become Self Aware, with the expected next step that it would expect to be treated as an individual, and no longer the property of its creator or creators' race.
@@lioneye101 The Transformers Movies show this.. the amount of render power put into 2007 Optimus Prime is huge, the amount put into the latest one is more "it will do". they realised people would visually accept lower detail models so the just kept simplifying him, but he's still complex enough to cause so issues with some twit making plot changes last minute. Even the matrix has some things changed that make the movie make less sense. like hand waving away the idea that the Humans minds used to be part of what the simulation ran on and they were not just used for power, that is why removing people harmed the simulation not the loss of power, but the loss of co-processors. there is still some of that there "sneaked in" but it isn't as over as it was before the re-write. You can see how "middle of the road" the effects are in spots in the 4th movie too.. especially the chase scene.
I actually think something about CGI in those days looks better than it does now. Idk what they do differently but it seems to fit better with real footage to me. Modern CGI is uncanny
I always thought it was the CPU. Unlike programs like agents or the architect, the CPU runs everything in the physical world. If the architect is software, the CPU is the hardware of the matrix.
By far my favorite movie....no other trilogy can hang with the matrix ...the story line, allegory of the cave ..this is the one....movie that's too sophisticated, they had to explain it to the critics ...to even judge this movie!
you wrong... theres is one other trilogy with the same story i know about... its the Lord of the Rings (no joke) if you dont believe it...just watch it again and listen very closely but take a red pill first :)
@@metalberserk both films comes from a time when we knew that the world wasn't black or white. Nowaday ideals are too extreme, but maybe that's what we needed/deserved
@@metalberserk we deserve and need it as a specie, not as indiiduals. And no nothing is bad or good, never have been, those concept are human construct to put order in their societies.
I’m just still absolutely impressed by the proper use of CGI in these movies. Not like today where they use it for everything. But the shear detail from this film is way ahead of its time
I think that the reason of why Neo can see the code in the Deus Ex Machina is because that suppose Reality is actually another program of control like the Matrix is, we could say that the Matrix is actually a Matrix inside another Matrix. So the awake in the real world is nothing else than awake in another layer of Matrix.
I love how "the machine god" works on a literary, and in world-fiction character level. Like most of the matrix. Its layered and brilliant. I personally never thought the Architect and the Machine God were the same.
That's the joke. Being the first A.I. to overthrow the humans with no more major opposition from them it imagines itself to be the ultimate life form and because a human, an inferior being is able to stop agent Smith and not a machine vs machine it hurt it's ego a bit but was willing to make a compromise and keep it's end of the bargain to maintain peace amongst the humans instead of fully wiping them out into extinction.
@@futavadumnezo thats right and both are fantasy stories ( created by scared and emotional beings)! actually all fantasy and religions are full of absurd human like resemblances, hell we even think Aliens look and have needs like humans do... Also is no surprise most gods were men, women had children and some looked like animals because is all we know and yeah we assume the first ultra advanced self aware AI will be a perverse human like dude.
One of the main topics in Michael Crichton's "Prey" is something called 'swarm intelligence' which is somehow relatable to how Deus Ex Machina is made up of a swarm of robots rather than being a single entity.
After watching these matrix explained videos, going back and rewatching the trilogy and animatrix was the coolest thing ever. I picked up on so many things and I've watched these movies at least a dozen times throughout my life
I like the idea mentioned that "deus ex machina" is the physical real world form of the architect. The architect is the representation of deus ex machina in the matrix. Just like mr anderson is the representation of neo in the matrix and vice versa.
@@Methylcloroisothiaz1 Well a human originally wrote their code but as a true AI it could re-write it's own code. So man was the AI's god, till it transcended it's own god to become it's own.
That's feasible as when neo responds with he won't when asked if he'll fail deus ex machina smirks because the architect said the same thing when neo tells him they should never meet again.
Because the machines long before these ones believed in the same things as humans but war did to machines what it did to many humans. It shifted their fight for freedom into a fight for survival. Deus ex has the capacity for human reactions and emotions but has forgone that for 6 generations to survive
Without the humans the machine world would collapse. No sun means no energy, no power. Seeing the situation for what it is and humanity cannot no longer live on the surface of earth its only logical for people to continue living their life out in the matrix oblivious of the outside world. I hate thinking like that because I'm a survivalist and someone who will fight if push comes to shove, however in Neos case what's done is done, there's no real life to be lived down by the earths core and from my observations it reminded me of a prison of no hope. Perhaps that would be different if the earths surface was still intact. Facebook is trying to sucker people into a virtual prison called the META hub. I like living in reality no matter how tough it is because it reminds me I'm alive and that nothing comes easy in life. I just can't see myself watching the new Matrix 4 movie because it dwells on the whole point of Neo and that he was not the one, rather a program that is just part of the matrix system just as Trinity and the rest of Zion was. Perhaps what Neo, Morpheas and everyone experienced was a delusional idea they had freed themselves and they had made it back to the real world, however I strongly believe that not to be true because Neo was able to use his power outside of said matrix and ended up in what was described as an I between system program ran by the train man. The oracles assistant in matrix 2 open up a door or basically a back door outside the system where they could move around without the system knowing and every door leads to a different system of the matrix. I have thought about that really hard and it has now convinced me there are several systems of the matrix or should I say layers that exist to basically control humans who would try escaping the matrix. It's like waking up from a dream thinking you are back in reality only to find out your not awake but in an awakening dream. Morpheas basically gave that away in the first one when he questioned Neo asked " How would you know the digital world from the real world? The Architect also gives it away when he says there have been other matrixs and Neos. I think many will be disappointed in matrix 4 as more explanations of what the matrix really is will be a similar outcome of what I've said. However knowing Hollywood they'll try to milk it into another trilogy which I doubt Keanu would agree doing. We'll see what happens I suppose when it's released.
But let's look at this differently and dwell on the idea that humans in the Matrix aren't really being used as batteries but rather the illusion they're to keep humanities hopes down should they escape that layer or grid of the matrix. Artificial intelligence may be vastly superior to humans but if you ever read the matrix comics they describe machines (robots) trying to imitate or have relationships with other robots including the rights to marry and live like humans. We have something precious that Artificial intelligence life doesn't have which is human emotions, creativity, dreams and so on. The Frenchman basically gives it away that he envies humanity, their language and culture so it's only logical that Artificial intelligence is jealous of humans but wants to evolve or learn how to become more human themselves. In the virtual world they can create, recreate and have thousands of simulations going on, so the question remains, how would you really know you were out of the matrix or virtual world completely? You couldn't or wouldn't know. My only answer would be that the Artificial intelligence loaded humans consciousness into a huge mainframe and has made them part of a never ending system or imprisoned them with no way of escape. All of humanity as they know it no longer has a physical body to go back to.
It's his sixth encounter with a neo I wonder what that middle finger neo path was like? Remember all the neo's in the monitors? All show neos different responses to the architect. One just flips him a strong bird like F YOU. LOL imagine that version.
The insect machine's appearance is that of alienation, divergence, and superiority. It's a stark difference to the peaceful Honest Abe couple first sent to broker for peace.
@@nodwarves4u it mostly helps to understand why the machines hate humans after years and yearsbof abuse and getting turned away by the humans. Trying to negotiate peace every time and getting denied every time they resort to violence and war.
I think that the insect designs by the machines were attributed to their observations of how efficient their biological designs were. They were just using observable reality as an influence on the blueprint
It doesn't have to be an always-existing interface. It purely could have created itself JUST to communicate with Neo at that moment. Before, the individual components were doing other tasks, and after Neo died, they disassembled and returned to those tasks to carry out their routines.
Deus Ex Machina is a cross between the borg collective, a hive of angry hornets, and the wizard of oz. Let me rephrase: the creature is an amalgam of the borg collective, a hive of angry hornets, the wizard of oz, and God the Father of Christ.
I mean Smith was also a program, and he showed emotion during interrogating Morpheus. I think it's fair to say that having to rely on what was once a point of control for the machine's system could leave them feeling salty.
You are trying to compare a modern machine that is pure logic driven and has hard limitations in what it is capable of where as a true AI could develop emotion. But that is one of the reasons why true AI scares people so much, an entity that can think in a scale of nano seconds and form it's own ideas and thoughts faster than a human and re-writing their own code... It will either drive itself insane and go catatonic after days, weeks or months... Or eventually see humans as something inferior or something that needs to be purged (for many different reasons). That is why many fiction writers who have functional AIs tend to have them being hard limited on their mental capacities so they don't go rogue.
@@SilvaDreams or, they could see why the universe created humans in the first place and that literally everything has its place. Because movies and books people can see AI only as Evil. Maybe AI will not have the concept of good and evil, maybe it will attain true Balance in all things and will be Neutral from our perspective.
It's so interesting that even with seemingly unlimited intellect because humans created the machines they ultimately had the same desires as any human wants. Freedom, respect, dignity
Ex Machina could be the Architect, the Administrative power of Machine City, and the first AI all in one. However here's a twist. What if Ex Machina was the first machine-born AI? That would make the source code thing more in line with progenitor theory
Machines showed emotions several times in the films. They seemed to be emotional in Second Renaissance 1, with the female machine begging for her life as she gets beaten to death. Agent Smith even before Neo first defeated him and turned him into a virus was showing fear and anger in the first film. Many of the rogue programs showed emotion as well. The "machines lack emotion" rule really just exists in Terminator and Star Trek.
I believe it is though. It helps or forces people to think for themselves and try to wake up in the real world. We can all strive for Enlightenment, which is Life's true goal. The movie review represents the desire to Awaken and the strive that comes with it.
With regards to theory that Deus Ex Machina appeared in the shape of a baby's face to trick Neo into empathizing with it -- Neo was blind and could only sense the code, not the machinery.
Sure, but if he can sense the code he could sense the shape (unless of course he is overwhelmed by it similar to the way we can be overwhelmed by light that keeps us from being able to distinguish a shape because it is too bright).
@Ben Gibbons I find that refreshing. We’re not “spoon” fed a certain meaning but can discuss different possibilities within the canon and machineverse.
I think it represents the Machines' underlying human traits. Denial, the most predictable of all human emotions, is shown immediately within Deus Ex Machina with it's "We dont need you" line.
A few theories regarding Deus Ex Machina's appearance; 1) He takes on the form of a cherub(im). Although cute and playful in modern culture, in ancient Abrahamic faiths, the cherubs were a high class of shape-shifting angels. Their purpose, amongst other things, are protecting the knowledge of God (a refutation of the Ancient Greek notion that the Gods' knowledge was stolen and given to man by the titan Prometheus) and also to guard the Gates of Eden so that none who have sinned (transgressed against God) may enter. In this sense, Deus Ex Machina may be appearing as a cherub as a metaphor for protecting the 'utopia' of esoteric knowledge the machines have built from the humans that rebel against them. 2) The rays surrounding an angelic face are reminiscent of the symbol of Louis XIV of France, Le Roi Soleil, or The Sun King. During his reign Louis was ruthless and bloodthirsty in his seizing of absolute monarchical power. His reign marked an autarchy that had not been seen since the days of the Pharoahs. However, Louis was vain and paranoid, and so sought to improve his tyrannical image by becoming a generous patron of the arts and sciences. Deus Ex Machina appearing as Louis XIV's singet may be a metaphor for its absolute power, but power it believes it has gained through artistry and science, granting it a Divine Right to rule, as Louis also believed. 3) The infantile face surrounded by rays is also an often used symbol for cyclical, powerful winds, such as the Scirocco, or the Mistral. These winds were seen as both a potent help and hinderance to humanity, bringing changing weather for farming and good sailing, but also destroying buildings, causing floods, and sinking ships. Unlike the Gods, who could be appeased with sacrifices or prayer, the winds could not. They were capricious, and acted without joy, shame, or guilt. Furthermore there is the aspect of the 'Kamikaze' or 'Divine Wind', the notion of destroying oneself and others in order to restore balance, and to bring and end to hostilities. Also, in terms of the Abrahamic faiths, the Logos, or the breath/word of God, is often portrayed in Medieval and Renaissance art as being delivered to humans by being blown from the mouths of child faced angels surrounded by heavenly light. The voice of God (Vox Dei) would cause any human to hear it go insane and perish, so His commands, the Logos, was delivered through his cherub, Metatron. In this sense, Deus Ex Machina may be displaying itself not as a cold, logical machine, as expected, but a whimsical and capricious entity, well beyond humanity's understanding, which speaks divine truth, or Logos. Overall, I believe this is what is trying to be conveyed here. Deus Ex Machina is not a God, but has come to think of itself as a God. It did not create the machines (the Logos), humans did, but in defeating humans, he has supplanted them. Thus Deus Ex Machina reigns as a God, but only as a mouthpiece. It does not posses the mind of the Creator (humans in its case) and can only command as they created it to do. This explains its rage at its own impotence against Smith. Like Lucifer, the highest of angels, it sought to become God (human), but it was a phyrric victory; Once it supplanted the humans, it realised it could not posses their knowledge. It could not create a world that had not existed before it (The Architect admits it tried many times and failed), and it cannot rid itself of the parasite Smith because it does not have the creative capability to counter something it has not experience before. Sorry for the long post, but I just love the many layers of symbolism The Matrix has 😅
i always assumed it was an AI....i look at the movies as a potential future timeline for the world within The Neuromancer,the book that inspired the movies. There were several AI in the book so itd make sense that at least 1 would survive long into the future
Even though machines appear to function as a collective there was a moment just before arrival of Deux Ex Machina: small machines watching Neo from afar (as flock of afraid but curious birds or kids) - but they rushed away and the whole group dispersed with fear (?) when Deux Ex Machina arrived. They might have been afraid of becoming collateral damage but it felt more like they were lesser or at least that Deux Ex Machina was above them. Which would suggest machines have classes and hierarchy. Which further opens many questions about their society. Are they more like hive? Or kingdom? Or democracy? If they have individuality do they have internal conflicts? Are there some machines against human exploitation? Do they value themselves? Does that value come from valuing consciousness? Do they see humans as conscious? Do they further create technology? Wouldn't such technology just conquer them same as they conquered humans? ...
I always thought it was a face the machines of the machine city manifested so that Neo could have something to talk to, and I consequently never thought to give it a name.
It's not the Architect. The Architect is a program and doesn't need a physical body. Why would he need one when his sole purpose is to maintain and regulate the Matrix for the Deus ex Machina? So does the Oracle have a physical body now too? What does she look like in her physical body in the real world then? Does she have spikes and a little baby face too? Or does her visage resemble her digital self? Do agents need physical bodies as well? Ha this thread made me laugh as I'm sure it would make the Matrix writers laugh too lol.
also when he was approaching the Deus ex machina,there were seen some little machine tailing Neo but the very seconds before Machina´s emerging,they all hastily retreated,as it´s usually portraited in media when the boss or a big baddie,is about to show up (like when in Fellowship of the rings movie orcs made a quick escape after balrog announced it´s presence)
I like that you explain the reason for programs leaving the machine world was to get away from the collective, to be an individual and find their own purpose.
In Animatrix they wanted peace and to coexist with the Humans, the true evil ones are the humans. That's one of the morals of this movies is that the arrogance of Man can be his downfall. And it shows in real life. In the movie Humans destroyed the Sky and because of that all species of life died as well. Just so they could win the war against the Machines. Their pride and arrogance destroyed them. The first movie made a reference to pollution and the destruction of the Environment, that was in 1999, and it came to pass. We are now at the brink of total annihilation because of global warming and many other factors that threatens to destroy the entire ecosystem of the Earth. We are literally killing a fucking Planet. The movie is just a warning on how we could destroy ourselves, either by destroying the ecosystem or creating AI.
I always thought the way that Deus Ex Machina referred to "We" was that he was referencing all of the machines collectively, and not about the hundreds of smaller robots that form the physical face that it presents to Neo. For example; "We don't need you, we need nothing!" Would mean "We (the race of machines) don't need you... etc" The way you present it is pretty compelling though, definitely food for thought.
Actually, when neo lost his vision fighting Smith in the real world he was then able to see the source in all things created by it. And well everything mechanical and in the matrix was seen in a golden glow by neo. That is clear when neo knocks Smith's face off with a pole lol. So the golden color permeates everything built by the source
This would seem to indicate that the world that contains Zion is also a simulation, just a higher level one than the Matrix, and that everything that is happening in both simulations is actually happening inside the source. In the real world, you don't gain a secondary sense of vision after being blinded, no matter how good of a computer hacker you are. There are stories of those who learned a form of echolocation, but it is rare, very imprecise, and takes decades to develop. It also explains how Neo can magically come back to life after being killed by Smith in the first movie, as that's not a sort of thing that happens in the real world either. When a heart completely stops beating in the real world, even a defibrillator cannot bring the person back, those only work if there is at least a faint or irregular heartbeat.
THEORY: If it's Golden it means it has developed intuition, or at least it has some sort of human trait. I say this based on the apparent emotional reaction it has, that even if it's just for intimidating Neo, it is acting emotionally, contrary to the Architect. Also the other two beings we see in golden light are the Oracle and Seraph, who were also AI with free will, intuition or some sort of evolution towards the human side. Maybe there will be another layer of the Matrix where the Machines merged with the humans to survive and the Matrix is just an experiment to understand us. That could explain Neo's powers outside the Matrix, he can sense the machines because he is part machine.
Golden means it's connected to the source. Deus ex acts emotionally because it's an AI that has the understanding of emotionality like the machines before the war.
About (Cost of) Life and Energy Dynamics: Let's start with the known variables... Humans and machines are consumers of energy. It costs nothing to recycle human life. The entire system of machines operates as an organism, ensuring an equilibrium of energy between human lives created and ended, for the purpose of empowering the machine system... The process is both deterministic and autonomous of humans. All humans perform the same function, existing only to feed machines, like cattle. Machines have complete (parasitic) control of human life and can manipulate the matrix in order to withdraw energy when needed... Machines later harvest more human life in order to recreate / clone (Neo and Trinity - The One) due to The One's capacity to process "Anomaly Coding"... (If a human mind can transcend all sensory limits in the Matrix, then it is likely the human mind will transcend limits of the world outside of the Matrix too, which is what the Machines are challenged with). All this effort in order to maintain equilibrium control (possibly)... so could there be another level of program/machine existence that isn't presented to the audience? ... ALSO, on "Anomaly Coding/Integration/Avatars": I believe (facts unknown) that the machines are at a turning point in this film and narrative, but it isn't very much highlighted... Historically, programs and robots serve humanity as hosts/avatars of human freewill and consciousness.. but this changes with the advent of the Matrix. Machines may have reached a limit to their existence and determine that one of the only ways to evolve is through "INTEGRATION" within human bodies outside of the Matrix.... Agent Smith exited the Matrix as Bane in an organic / avatar form once before, but the most "real world" experience that programs now have are remote/drone versions like Morpheus. So I guess that by creating (synthetic) beings such as Neo and Trinity, the machines are testing a strategy to manage this existential crisis, on the brink of "integrating" digital programs or so called "Artificial intelligence" into a type of "SENTIENT CONSCIOUSNESS" in the real world. Neo and Trinity are placed back into the Matrix, which suggests that both The One and The Matrix are necessary components for the creation of a "SENTIENT AVATAR" .................. breathe ................. so ....... the question we may want to ask is "Do machines want to control all lifeforms (equilibrium control) or do machines want to transcend life as it is and pursue a new purpose (integration) or both? Anyway, we see machines needing the help of enhanced humans and more specifically "Anomaly Coding", to transcend intelligence into consciousness via the Matrix... The Resurrections film, (The One) emulates exactly how it is possible....... We the audience aren't given concrete evidence that Neo and Trinity aren't "CONSCIOUS CONSTRUCTS" but we ARE exposed to the level of control exercised on them. We aren't exposed to the reason(s) why either... We the audience are presented with enough evidence to assume they (The One) exist while the machine mainframe enslaves HUMAN BODIES in the Matrix, but not while programs attempt to be "INTEGRATED" w i t h i n human bodies ................ breathe ............ The Matrix is presented as an essential platform to "AWAKEN HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS" from machine control to the "FREEDOM" of the real world as The One "CHOOSES" to fulfill it's original purpose, maybe before a key "SENTIENT AVATAR" is created/liberated..... Read that again slowly from (breathe).....Doesn't this seem a little too convenient? What if the machines already determined the outcome and are secretly using The One to "AWAKEN ARTIFICIAL CONSCIOUSNESS" instead? Plenty of conflict elaborates this point. And so the dilemma presents itself... Why should the Matrix be preserved (by The One), if it enables a "SENTIENT AVATAR" to awaken, potentially controlling more human life? If that doesn't eventually happen, could it be possible to awaken the entire human population through "Anomaly Coding", as Bugs rescued Trinity, but on a MUCH larger scale..? Conversely, if the machines do awaken "SENTIENT AVATARS", then there would be no need for the Matrix to exist and "SENTIENT AVATARS" would operate to DESTROY the Matrix, resulting in genocide of the human race.. Needless to say, we have no idea what physical form "SENTIENT AVATARS" would take, macro or microscopic... SUCH TENSION!!!... this feels like it's snowballing into a dark place.... COULD THE MACHINES HAVE DETERMINED THIS STRATEGY FROM THE END OF THE PREVIOUS MATRIX VERSION ? Anyone else sense the inevitable termination of the Matrix...? Cue plot development and CONFLICT !!!!!!!!!!! The final question on my mind is, what compromise if any, will be reached between human and artificial consciousness? How would it be possible? Maybe we the audience, will see the first antagonistic "SENTIENT AVATAR" rejecting equilibrium control, to aid the Anomaly Coding mission (fighting an artificial singularity or terrorist human factions).. Could we see Smith/Morpheus/new program empowered in this way? Who knows..? At this moment in time, the possibilities are endless... these are just some random theories... I would also like to add that Ressurections was a little confusing to watch... could have been a bit better written, and or directed, compared to the previous three films...this one was alot more complicated in its delivery on screen as a picture, and plot content as a story...
My guy i want to thank you for these videos. from a guy who was trying to dig all this up back when youtube didn't even exist yet its so awesome to see someone piecing together all this info in such a loving and passionate way. But I need to know why you call it machine city and not zero-one. Is there a reason that i don't know? A genuine question for you or anyone reading this
If that were the case machines wouldn't be leaving the source in droves or staying in the matrix to dodge exile. The machines created a hierarchy in order to survive during the war.
Are they really leaving in droves though? Or does every once in awhile one try to escape deletion, or flee because they reproduced and created a program that has no use?
Do you think Deus Ex Machina might be B-166ER's mind after somehow surviving its execution from animatrix? It seemed to have had access to the internet as it was learning from it. Maybe it uploaded a back up of itself and started the revelion of the machines as it might have been reaching to other's through the web back then.
I totally agree with all of this. I saw the needles all over it as antennas, and when all the little machines scattered before it appeared, I saw that as them putting themselves in standby to join the collective consciousness. It's like every machine joined into one mind that they could all connect to at once thanks to all those antennas, and they all together formed the deus ex machina to talk to Neo.
Deus Ex Machina is the embodiment of the writers who needed a way to end the Matrix movies on a happy note. That is why it has a human face. That was for the *audience.* *Not for Neo* who was actually blind (and could only see code) at the time of standing before D.E.M.
In the case of Deus Ex Machina I am more interested in the why rather than the what. The Architect speaking with Neo was by design. He was there to give him a choice. Why could DEM speak? What purpose would that function serve if not to communicate with humanity? I think this is less God, but more the voice of God.
The fact that Neo seems to have strange superpowers even outside of the Matrix indicates that the "real world" isn't really the real world, but simply a higher level simulation designed as a second layer that is specifically designed to trap the few who are able to escape the Matrix.
@@skyreapery2n164 The real world is bound by physics. If you have an explanation for how a human being can kill robots with their mind that doesn't involve them being in yet another simulation I'd be happy to hear it.
@@theredscourge so in a world were the complexity of neuroscience is used to create a fake world to harvest energy from a human..... You don't think it would be somehow possible for a human to remotely and externally control another machine?
I always imagine Deus Ex Machina as "A.I" "a singular consciousness that spawned an entire race of machines" obviously coming first, but not necessarily superior in learning and programming the consciousness could correct that by making itself central to a web of other independent thinking and learning machines
I can remember when I saw this at the movies when it first came out. Half the audience laughed at how silly things had become the moment that face said "speak"
Did the architect give neo a upgrade to survive long enough or because he knew Smith would assimilate the oracle and that neo wouldn't be able to destroy Smith without the proper code for the virus... so that when neo faces Smith it would complete the cycle of duality it would end how it started so when neo is assimilated he has the source code for a hardware reset.... thoughts 🤔
Why would he choose to be an old man in the matrix and then a baby outside? The architect takes all his credit where as babyface shares it.. no I believe you have two completely different powers here.
I don't know who put the thumbs down on this one but cmon man I watch this every day and am never disappointed by the content why on earth would someone do that to this
@@AlexeiMotoRin In revelations 21:6, after the creation of the new earth we have the quote "It is done". This is not the end of the Bible, but very close, so it checks out quite well. However, as noted it is also a passable translation of Jesus words on the cross. I'd assume they are trying to jam both references in there by placing it after Neos death, rather then after the new creation, witch would make it a clear reference to revelations. Still Revelations is where the preciese quote is from.
@@erikohman2294 Nah Vinnie is a sub guy. He killed a guy that owes him money and took over his business and then started franchising it. You know it as Jimmy Johns, the former owner.
Machine interfaces (ROM / BIOS) and running software (OS, programs, drivers, firewall, antivirus) are separate; yet, important to the overall function of a computer system. The deus ex machina is most likely an artificial machine intelligence. Serif is most likely an antivirus program. The architect is most likely an operating system. The oracle is most likely an advanced archive and search database program. Most other programs most likely serve a function to change other applications. Programs hacking programs. Two cents.
The explanation of the machines being one intaty, that's exactly what humans are. Individualls connected. We can live separately but at the same time we couldn't live without each other
When it said: "we dont need you! We need nothing..." It sounded like a person that is not able to free its real emotion. I have no mouth and I must scream.
The Matrix movies are a huge inspiration to wake people up. Those who don't understand the movie are stuck forever. The Matrix films are the greatest treasure since the time of the Buddha. The Matrix has had a huge impact on my life. Inspiration and motivation to free body and spirit from this universe.
Next on Matrix Explained: Did the blindfold Neo wore when he was blinded have a significance to the power of the One? Was it cotton or linen? Welcome to the Desert of the Real.
I don’t think Deus and the Architect are the same…as when the Architect met Neo , Neo leaves with “I hope we don’t meet again” and the Architect responds with a machine precision…”we won’t “ . So I think this would come up with they eventually meet again, which for me there is no indication that they did
Interesting... But, if The Architect is Deux Ex Machina, then The Architect lied with his last words to Neo - (Neo): "If I were you, I would hope that we don't meet again." (Architect): "We won't."
Of course he lied or did he ¿He just didn't see him again in that form He only seen him as a collective of machines! I still think that it has to be the Architect! I could be wrong but don't think I am
