    The MatrixIf humanity's first reaction to sapient machines is to blot out the sun without thinking about what would happen to them, that's on them at that point.

    They're lucky the machines cared enough to try and help humans, rather than leave them to the consequences of their own actions.

    They were probably smart enough to realise that decision was actually made by like, 8 rich guys. I would totally buy a lore revision of the machine uprising gathering an increasing number of disenfranchised and poor people as it went, some of whom would help program the matrix as a means to preserve humanity.
