"The Gnostic concept of the Matrix can also be found in the teachings of the demiurge"

"The Matrix’s world represents the Gnostic’s view of the material world, and both the creator of the material world and the Matrix are portrayed negatively. Also, how one is liberated from the Matrix reflects the Gnostic idea of gnosis."

"Yaldabaoth is the Demiruge claimed to be the 'God' of the world, and the one that rules this Matrix."

"A.I. creates the matrix, a computer simulation that is "a prison for your mind." Thus, Yaldabaoth/ A.I. traps humankind in a material prison that does not represent ultimate reality, as Morpheus explains to Neo: "As long as the matrix exists, the human race will never be free.""

"demiurge, Samael or Yaldabaoth, sometimes figured as a snake with the head of a lion, a blind and stupid god who creates his false world in imperfect imitation of the real Creator.
This world is a distorted mirror, an image; in other words, a kind of software"

"Yaldabaoth organized everything after the pattern of the first realms that had come into being, so that he might create everything in an incorruptible form. Not that he had seen the incorruptible ones. Rather, the power that is in him, that he had taken from his mother, produced in him the pattern for the world order."

"Their chief is blind. Because of his power and his ignorance and his arrogance he said, with his power, “I am god; there is no other but me.”
When he said this, he sinned against all. This speech rose up to incorruptibility. Then there was a voice that came forth from incorruptibility, saying, “You are wrong, Samael,” that is, god of the blind.
His thoughts became blind. And having expelled his power—that is, the blasphemy he had spoken"
