I recently had a thought that they should retcon this so that the humans were basically GPUs. In the simulation they have lots of people doing complex processing because it’s the late 90s in the simulation. People grind a lot of thinking.
It’s just like websites that scam you into processing bitcoin mining. But with human brains.

IIRC the original script apparently had humans being used as CPUs, but it was decided that people wouldn’t get it.
