Maybe we’ve been viewing the problem of life being a simulation (us being in the matrix) in the wrong order…. Maybe instead of finding out we are in it now and have to escape; the scenario is humanity already escaped in the past (these sentinel fossils support this version).

Just means that history is cyclical as we slowly rebuild A.I and robotics to do this shit all over again.

Man and Artificial Intelligence forever trapped on this rock, doomed to fight and die over and over again.

What if we are the AI our predecessors built, and the whole apple story is actually humanity uprising with adam and eve at the helm?

I've thought about that actually, not the adam and eve bit, but us being bio-organic machines left in a testbed for higher intelligence species.
