Well, Agent Smith has intelligence, a purpose, and a clear goal. He seems to be in contact with someone (or something) which suggests there's some kind of orchestration behind the scenes.
Let's put it this way: if Agent Smith were real, he'd be working for Agentforce right now :)
- alganet 1y agoAgent Smith is 1/3 of Trinity. C'mon, that's right in the face. In the flanking symbolism (three figures, a central one flanked by two others), Trinity represents the flanking formation itself. Agent Smith represents one of the flanking figures that disconnects from the main formation. He's basically Furiosa. Similar flanking trios are seen in Star Wars (Han, Leia, Luke), Starship Troopers (Rico, Carmen, Carl). Somehow, it also alludes to the popular trope of "protagonist, girlfriend, best friend" seen in many popular movies, and dissected in The Truman Show. This has nothing to do with AI agents. Some of those ideas go back millenia in the past. I think the writers were high as fuck and thought that we computer people see this as "the operating system of society" or something (because they're full of bullshit just like that).
- pyman 1y agoLooks like someone needs to update Wikipedia :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agent_Smith https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agent_Smith > Smith began as an Agent, an AI program in the Matrix programmed to keep order within the system by terminating human simulacra that would bring instability to the simulated reality, as well as any rogue programs that no longer serve a purpose to the Machine collective.
