    The Oracle is a massive Oracle database. She likely "smokes" to symbolize she's operating on a "cloud" platform. The Oracle gives out cookies because databases use tracking cookies to identify users on the network...that's why she seems to be psychic and know everyone's actions (because she tricks them into eating tracking cookies). Because she utilizes cloud computing, unlike the Architect who runs on traditional database architecture, she is able to perform complex data analysis that he can not. It's really that simple.

    What do candy, cookies and smoking represent? Bad habits, compulsion, inhibition, pleasure seeking, emotion. The Oracle represents emotion, she is all too human, to contrast with the Architect; cold intellectualism, unapproachable. The Oracle speaks to Neo. The Architect speaks at Neo, disinterested at first, not even trying to make himself comprehendible to Neo. The Architect and the Oracle represent a binary opposition, intellect vs emotion.
    The Oracle lives in the community, surrounded by children, whereas the Architect is remote surrounded by tv screens.

    I think the oracle and the architect are colleagues who have VERY different personalities and have spent so much time around each other that they kinda getting on each other's nerves. You did a fan theory that suggested they are working together to perfect the Matrix and make it acceptable for all the humans existing within it. The architect builds them, the Oracle finds the problems, reports back, the Architect corrects/changes the problems, and they keep on going back and forth. I strongly suspect that they just need a vacation from their work AND each other.

  • @hvymettle
    @hvymettle 3 года назад +52

    The Merovingian demonstrated that food within the Matrix is code capable of manipulating the programs that ingest it. Therefore, the cookies that the Oracle bakes are code. The Oracle gives Neo a cookie to insert the code that will cause him to fall in love with Trinity and believe that he is the one. Cigarettes, are not code, per se, they represent data. So when the Oracle smokes she is inputting data to assess human behavioral responses to her stimuli. The Architect said that the variable choice made the Matrix 99% effective and the Oracle's goal is to get that last 1% to accept the Matrix programming. She is trying to do that by introducing love as a variable into the equation.

    I always saw the Architect and the Oracle as complementary programs - the Architect is designed to "balance the equation," while the Oracle is designed to "unbalance it" - in other words, to introduce the element of choice, which was discovered to be a necessary element for the functioning of the Matrix. Hence, the Architect couldn't understand choice because he wasn't programmed to, but the Oracle was.

    I personally think the biggest thing to take from her conversation with Neo when he relays the information from the Architect that he received, is that she refers to the Architect as "that man," despite him clearly being a program. She does this with the big M too, "What do all men with power want, more power."
    The Oracle, gives machines not just human pronouns, but even refers to their 'identities' as being partially human as well.

    My interpretation of the Oracle saying "please" in the regards to the Architect's claim of Zion being destroyed, is that because Neo chose to return to the Matrix and save Trinity -- unlike the other Ones -- and the Architect doesn't know what will happen.
    The Architect can predict events because he's accrued data from the previous versions of the Matrix. He can't predict events that never happened -- the "change" the Oracle refers to.
    The Oracle and Neo cant see beyond their own choices because they dont know their ramifications. The Oracle made a decision to surrender her fate to Neo by letting Smith assimilate her. And Neo chose the path of the Oracle, which led him to sacrifice himself to save Zion.

  • @ShakaZ3D
    @ShakaZ3D 3 года назад +14

    The whole Path of the One itself is a simulation meant to investigate certain emotions. In this case the human emotion of love. It is a common theme and it is essential to Neo's power. In fact everyone of his powers and major accomplishments have been tied to when he felt that particular emotion. Powers Activated by Trinity's words, discovering wireless connection after he saved her, being able to see the code in the real world after his fight with Bane, and having the strength to continue on without anything holding him back after he lost his one true love.

We don’t really know what they know, but it’s pretty clear they don’t really know much. They might not even be aware of programs outside of agents that look like humans.

Once the matrix was rebooted Morpheus became basically a leader who retained some of his memories of being the one or somehow gained them over time. That’s how he would know there would be another One who would come and end the war. Neo, in the forth installment will basically take the role of Morpheus

    The Oracle smokes as a reference to the Oracle of Delphi. There are a couple of references to the importance of smoke here.
    From Wikipedia...
    1. As a signal: "The goat was then slaughtered and upon sacrifice, the animal's organs, particularly its liver, were examined to ensure the signs were favourable, and then burned outside on the altar of Chios. The rising smoke was a signal that the oracle was open."
    2. As a means to divine prophesy: "Pythia used oleander as a complement during the oracular procedure, chewing its leaves and inhaling their smoke."
    Do a search for Pythia over on Wikipedia for way more than you ever wanted to know about the subject. Essentially, a priestess would breath in the magic smoke and start to have visions of the future. These would be interpreted by someone not quite so intoxicated to advise thier clients of what was to come. It would have actually be kind of weird if they didn't have the Oracle smoke with the rich mixture of philosophy and religion the Matrix has built in.

    I love your videos and have since I first found you on Facebook such a long time ago.
    Nice video, I’d like to talk to “the illusion of choice”. I think it’s reasonable to define choice as a selection out of realisable alternatives. This would mean choice is an illusion in determinism.
    But if we look at what a choice is cognitively, and we differentiate that process, deterministically and mechanistically, we see that choices are merely a selection from considerable alternatives.
    Neo DID choose between red and blue under this definition, he just did not do so of any so called “free will”. He did not make a “free choice”. His brain certainly made a determined selection from considerable alternatives.

    I think the Oracle does things like smoke and bake cookies because that's what humans do. She learns by immersing herself in human behavior. She sits on a public park bench like the lowliest of humans. She smokes because it's a dirty habit of egotistical. She is humble. But she talks in a cryptic fashion like fortune teller. She willingly gives answers to questions, but they are vague and obtuse.
    The Architect on the other hand lives in isolation in a sterile office building. He observes human activity but doesn't join in. He lives in an ivory tower. But you can never truly understand things like love and hope until you experience them. He speaks in a precise, technical fashion -- like a lawyer trying to be perfect in every word. He is egitistical.

They’re programs, not humans with a finite moment of time to exist, so the pursuit of money and other things humans fight over aren’t important.
    It sounds to me like the Oracle told the truth. She DOES in fact know more than The Architect, because she’s been sitting in her little apartment, smoking her cigarettes, helping babies and baking cookies knowing that their digital world has just as many problems as the human one did and eventually those on the bottom (humans) would find a way to the top like they (the machines) did.
