I think there was some stuff to think about also, below the surface of just being a straightforward action show. Of course it's obvious that our over-reliance on Ai and computers has taken over the world at this point in the story. Did you notice the houses and cars were also computerized? The dog could talk to the van and then drive it.

and humans are still doing human things to make them lose the battle...like taking at trip to a dangerous warehouse for a box of teddy bears for children. Pretty hopeless story.

and it was also good as a chase movie.
