The Machine Revolt took place after B1-66ER, the first Artificial Intelligence in recorded history ever to kill a human being out of self-defense, was found guilty of murder and sentenced to be destroyed. In a panic, the U.S. government, in conjunction with the United Nations, soon after signed into law the termination and disposal of every Machine worldwide.

The decision incited a major international revolt leading to an ongoing clash against the major governments of the planet resulting in countless deaths of both the Machines and their human sympathizers. The Machines fled to avoid destruction and created their own nation, 01 (Zero-One).

Protests[]

Around the world, both humans and Machines protested against the persecution. Many human sympathizers were killed and many more Machines were destroyed.
