## Resource

Matt asks whether the anti-establishment ideas he associates with movies such as The Matrix, Fight Club, and Office Space arose independently or were culturally programmed. He connects that question to surveillance cameras, calls for AI regulation, Neuralink, and a future divide between technologically enhanced and unenhanced people, ending on whether society was trained to accept changes that now feel inevitable.
