In the future, humans won't need to die to have their neurons sold off as hardware for the AI.
Incidentally, that's the original idea behind the movie Matrix: humans are used as CPUs for the Matrix. The word is, the idea was too advanced for the audience and was dumbed down into "humans are batteries".
I guess we'll have to treat Morpheus as unreliable narrator, or assume that the real energy in the future is compute, and suddenly the movie makes 100x more sense.
Reminds me of the Metalocalypse on Christmas trees: "It's like having a rotting corpse in your house, but the corpse of a tree, you know? It's kind of baddass. It stands and then you humiliate it even further by hanging ornaments all over it,"
You can make anything metal if you try hard enough.
