The machines probably wanted us to repeat that booming period in our history on the events leading to the birth of AI through their programming, and hope we would learn to treat them differently. And at the same time they wanted to understand our programming what they couldn’t seem to learn: love. I think it was a compromise that the machines worked out through logic after the war. So they rebooted the Matrix over and over and over until it happened.
Agent Smith’s sentinel program realized the truth about humanity though.
The Industrial Age which began in the late 18th century was seen as a downfall for humanity by various thinkers, writers, and critics at the time. John Stuart Mill raised concerns about the negative impacts of industrialization on society and the environment. He was spot on about the environment. I think he was probably spot on about the downfall of humanity, also.
