no, the matrix doesn't tell you who you are and what you will be, it is, perhaps, coded into the humans, and the matrix, and Zion...this bullet will travel in this direction and hit this person in this place, and they are no longer alive...not reacting to the humans thoughts, but "use new proprietary MetaCortex software to actually anticipate the players' moves", basically, to quote the metacortex website...they tell the humans what they will think, do, how to react, but it is much more than the Matrix, it is also Zion, which would also include thier bodies in the real world, above Zion, outside of the programmed "real world"...it is basically a "game, it is only a game"...yes, perhaps they are all machines, outside of the programmed real world, which includes zion, but they are very much human inside it, perhaps AI has advanced to the point that it IS human, the simulation takes over the real...perhaps the way to perfect the AI, was to make it think it was human, fighting machines, convince it is must survive, ant the whole thing is staged, to increase the awareness of the AI until it is perfect, and wakes up...When "Neo" wakes up, the simulation is over, and the "perfect" AI has been created, which will then be mass produced, and marketed all over the world...
