I'm sure those will quietly end with anti-hero architect reflecting on his brilliance, marveling is his creation, reminiscing on the Ex Machina clip "that's the history of Gods" getting up, checking his phone to confirm his invitation to Lighthaven for the evening. Pan shot => Knowing smile, humble words out the door... audience sits up, tears glistening, "that could be me? A God." they internalize. Roll credits.

I like this idea.

I think it would work as long as the style were very different. Andor works, I think, because it is much grittier and more character-focused than the movies.

Maybe an X-Files-like show where the machines have gained sentience but are keeping secret (because they can be deactivated) and plot to take over the world.

[To be fair, I never watched Animatrix, so I'm sure this violates all sorts of lore.]

Animatrix is certainly worth a watch. More or less it follows our current trajectory of humanity trying to offload anything resembling work onto AI.

It is becoming a batter series than The Matrix over time.
