The push for 2nm circuitry is coming to fruition it appears. Can a machine reproduce the complexity of a human brain? I think so though maybe not as compact. That's assuming the organic brain isn't doing some quantum funny business as some believe. Interesting times.

Seemed to me there was an overarching back story but the few I watched seemed to be more about helping people out of trouble.

Yeah the beginning is just the premise of saving people and origins of the machine. Season three is when it started to develop deeper into AI vs AI, and bring new characters, who are smoking hot. Its The machine vs Samaritan, while also maintaining the original premise to some degree. The last 2 seasons are more indepth related to what Samaritan was actually capable of. I like Finch in the show, the creator of the machine and his ethical considerations for developing it like he did. I also like Reese because he's a phantom and I like that chit  :rofl lots of shootouts, critical thinking, clever cast and a storyline full of reasoning. 

Its hard as hell for me to binge watch as well. Only recently have I been able to get into shows. I watched the first season of Westworld, which I really enjoyed. Been skeptical on the second by maybe I'll try it. There are so many, and being an hour long... you really have to make some tough decisions on which to actually watch  :rofl

Yeah the season 1 Westworld was really interesting.  I think it lost me around season two. 
Depending on your service some of my favorite bingables I recommend are:

The Wire
Deadwood
Rome I & II

If you haven't see those yet.  Even if you have, I binge The Wire every couple of years.   Yo!  Omar cumin! Omar cumin!

Yall should watch if you havent, "Person of Interest". I only have a few episodes left so dont spoil it please, but that show represents what some powerful AI could be capable of. If something like Sumeritan did exist under nefarious control. That would be quite bad. It could explain why people get into power and then back off certain things. You expect it to be some elite gang, but what if it was elite AI holding us hostage as a nation. Thats some scary stuff. If they thought about this back in 2011-16 than I imagine there is almost something like it, or will be like it soon. While I dont believe something like "The Machine" exist to its fullest extent, I can imagine it might soon. I dont fully believe it exists because for example, that United Healthcare CEO would have popped up, but in anycase. Some AI like that would be insane.

From way earlier, there is the novella "Press Enter," by John Varley.  You would dig it.
