Why not use cows?

Detrius_MXO

Why not put cows in pods instead of humans? Wouldn't it be less trouble? That should show you that machines don't hate mankind since they allow them to survive when a cow would provide much more energy and less of a headache.

Then we'd have to eat human steak.

No, for once I'm trying to be serious. Why not use a cow? I read the book ....Taking the Red Pill and they said it would be easier to put a cow in the matrix and give him a matrix pasture. He would never no the difference where as humans are advanced enough that they can eventually tell the difference. There has to be a reason why they use humans

moo

somebody had to say it.

HAHAHA - i love it.

Sounds logical Detrius, but it's a movie and most of the time you just have to take things for given. I'd guess an explanation would be that humans were just too dangerous to keep them alive or at least awake. Last thing they did was burn the sky, what's next? nuke the planet?

Yea Krytical but It doesn't answer the question. We all know that the movie has many many things to read between the lines and alot of stuff was well thought out for the story. So why would this be so hard to answer? Maybe they are using us for something else besides harvesting our body heat for power.

Machines still feel a connection to their original creators, however,
they also felt the need to punish them. You can't continue to punish
them if they're all dead. It's also hard to seek vengeance and
retribution against a passive cow...

Machine: "Hand over your flesh. We demand it."

Cow: *stares blankly and chews*

Detrius_MXO

Debarlo? Where do I remember you from? Where you a MOD on the old boards? Anyway if the machines have that much hate for us then why a truce?

Cows don't have minds.

The body cannot live without the mind.

Energy cannot be gathered by a dead body.

Cows would be useless to machines.

BAM

Detrius_MXO

Actually cows do have minds? As I've stated give them a virtual pasteur they'd be fine. They may not have advanced minds but they do have them none the less

ZCash

Who knows for sure? They have brains, but do they have minds?

And I was, of course, kidding. My previous post would have you believe that all cows are dead, which isn't true. I was just trying (but failing) to be logical.

Detrius_MXO

Of course they have minds. Go kick a bull in the nuts, if he charges at you you pissed him off, therefore he has a mind that is in a state of furry.

ZCash

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I thought we were talking about cows here? Of course bulls have minds.
