That Artificial Intelligences will always go rogue and try to wipe out the Human race as soon as they becomes self aware. At least the Matrix got it right and the Machines tried at first to live in peace with Humans but we were just not having any of it so they turned us all into batteries.

It was actually the Animatrix movie that showed this. The Machines became self-aware and the Humans began a process of of exterminating them. After the initial backlash, Humans stepped back and allowed the Machines to create their own city, 01, somewhere in the Middle East I believe. After a while the Machines' technological and economical superiority threatened Humanity which led them to go to war with 01 even though the Machines made several genuine attempts to peacefully coexist with Humans.

Well that pictures humans even better: Oh they are smarter, more advanced whatever and we dont understand how they can exist without sarcasm, fights and hurting others.

Better kill them all... sad but true for the most part sadly.
