From what I heard, the script was "simplified" to be more relatable to non-technical audiences.
When you get to the scene where Switch holds up the battery, just replace it with a CPU chip.
It makes far more sense if the Matrix is the AI server farm that does all their processing, and human brains are the processors. The AIs need the brains intact, which is why they don't just lobotomize everyone as fetuses and dispense with the VR illusion.
In my personal headcanon, the Matrix is an Inception. Zion is a server rack, and the AIs in it have been fooled into thinking they're human. Their apparent conflict with AI was engineered by humans to condition them to abhor conflict between human and AI, and to erase the idea that they are separate tribes.
