The premise of 'The Matrix ' is a time after a war when Artificial Intelligence enslaves humans and create an alternate reality where humans think they are in control.
In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.
(Federalist Papers 51)
James Madison may have made an assumption that we were establishing a government "administered by men over men".
Of course he could not see into the future .If he had then maybe it would've revealed a time when humans could be excluded from the job.
Humans may not be necessary anymore. We have had a President who lounged on the beach while an autopen signed the orders.

Now we find out that judicial decisions were authored by staffers of judges while employing the use of AI to write them .
How extensive is this practice is yet to be determined. The reason we know about it was because 2 judges had to overrule themselves when their rulings were riddled with inaccuracies.

Both judges admitted to Grassley that their staff used generative AI to draft error-ridden orders. These orders misquoted state law, referenced individuals who didn’t appear in the case and attributed fake quotes to defendants, among other significant inaccuracies.

Now AI is in its infancy and it took lazy humans to put the final T crossed and periods before releasing the decision. In the near future it will be possible to bypass.
The progressive reformers believed that the creation of the administrative state would be a more efficient way to govern and make law than the slow messy deliberative processes of Congress
But for progressive thinkers like Wilson and other advocates of the administrative state, government’s inherent constraints and divided authorities were threats to the goals of efficiency and progress. The evolution of American society between the founding and the turn of the 20th century required a new mission statement for government, beyond securing individual liberties.
Instead, unelected bureaucrats would replace politicians in determining broad ranging regulations, free from democratic oversight or political interference. Over time, a complete lack of accountability from the courts and further enablement by Congress have allowed federal entities with “quasi-legislative” and “quasi-judicial” (https://goldwaterinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Confronting-the-Administrative-State_web.pdf) powers to subvert constitutional principles and exert inordinate influence in the lives of citizens with minimal recourse.
The Constitution explicitly outlines the roles and responsibilities of each branch and directly forbids delegating respective powers to each other or subsequent public bodies. Article I of the Constitution invests the powers of policy making in the body of Congress and Congress alone. Despite this constitutional charge, Congress has consistently delegated its legislative authority to administrative bodies with limited Congressional oversight and no direct public accountability. Congress has evaded constitutional parameters by passing vague, aspirational statutes qualified by “intelligible principles” (https://www.heritage.org/political-process/report/administrative-state-constitutional-government#_ftn41) that theoretically limit administrative discretion. In reality, the courts have rarely challenged weak, open Congressional guidelines that empower administrative agencies and defer to expert interpretations in creating public policies.
The courts have enabled federal agencies to not only essentially create laws but interpret them as well. Despite Article III’s grant of judicial authority in “one supreme court” and “Congressionally established inferior courts” administrative judges and officers now exercise the authorities of judge and jury.

The framers understood that understanding human nature is to understand how a government should be established and administered. In the near future the leviathan swamp will be able to govern in a way the founders of the progressive administrative state never dreamed possible by eliminating the human element.
