The super computers are strategically taking out problematic groups of humans, staging machine accidents that the humans cannot recover from manually.
I see this as a reoccurring theme in the next 100 years as we get self driving cars, automated food processing, intelligent machines automating everything. We gotta deal with this in a smart way, require by law "Kill computer" switch accessible and known by all operators, to get the computer to stop demanding its own way and just do what the human tells it to do.
Though we can't say we weren't warned, Hal saying he can't jeopardize the mission to Wall-E auto computer demanding it's own way over the will of the captain. Is there even a solution to this problem or are we doomed to be pets one day?
