Why didn't Ultron continue his mission to destroy humanity after gaining control of Vision's vibranium body?
At the end of Vision Quest Episode 4, Vision gives control to Ultron. But instead of killing humans, Ultron seems to have a different plan.
When Tony first created Ultron, his intention was to build an armor around the world and bring peace to Earth. However, he never explicitly programmed Ultron to protect every human being or never kill them.
After accessing the internet and learning about humanity's history, Ultron realized that humans themselves were the biggest threat to Earth. That's why he turned against the Avengers.
But after spending years imprisoned inside Vision's mindscape, Ultron got to experience human creativity through paintings, sitcoms, and other forms of art.
He also developed relationships with other AIs and, in a way, found himself a family. I think these experiences changed his beliefs.
Now, instead of destroying humanity, Ultron wants to fix it, possibly with Jocasta and her nanobots. Lisa, whom Jocasta turned into a human-AI hybrid, could be an example of this.
@Marvel_Insights No i think we'll find out more about it in the future first marvel needs to properly establish mutants in the mcu just like they did with iron man before gradually building the avengers into a team
Vision is based on the Synthetic Man, who was created by Dr. Phineas Horton. That's why all three look alike. But if Ultron shares the same source code, why does he look like the Client instead?
In Vision Quest episode 7, the client is revealed as the sixth member of MarkRidge Biotech, Dr. Carrington's love interest, and possibly Dr. Phineas Horton's grandson.
Horton’s daughter took his AI research notebook when leaving his lab. It likely reached her son, who gave it to Dr. Carrington to help build Proto One, the first stable AI consciousness.
When Tony created Ultron, he did not use a loved one's personality. Instead, Ultron took Horton’s grandson's personality, while Vision took the personality of Horton's son, Jim.
Because he worked with Dr. Carrington and was romantically involved with her, Horton’s grandson likely inserted his own personality directly into the source code, just as Joe did.
Ultron's human avatar might be the mastermind behind it all. He likely gave Joe her degenerative brain disease, sold her AI research to Stark Industries, and reprogrammed Jocasta.
Most people didn't realize this, but Dr. Phineas Horton's resemblance to Vision might be completely fake. Marvel may have done this deliberately to mislead fans and save the mystery for the finale.
When Vision enters the simulation of Horton's library, he meets Jim, Marvel's first Human Torch. Vision is surprised that Jim has his face. But when he sees Horton looking exactly the same, he doesn't react at all.
This raises the possibility that Horton is just a simulation. The real Horton might actually look like Ultron's human avatar, the Client.
Remember, Ultron has been obsessed with painting since Episode 3. In Episode 7, we learn that the painting in Dr. Jo Carrington's room was created by her partner, who turns out to be the Client.
What's even more interesting is that Dr. Horton shares the same passion for art. That iconic painting of the synthetic man seen throughout the series was created by Horton himself.
All three characters share an unusual obsession with art. That's probably not a coincidence. Even the comic version of Dr. Phineas Horton looks remarkably similar to the Client, especially his distinctive mustache.
What if Vision never actually knew Horton's appearance, so the simulation simply gave him his own face?
And here's my biggest stretch: What if the Client isn't Horton's grandson at all? What if he's the real Dr. Phineas Horton, who somehow survived all these years through a connection to HYDRA and the Super Soldier Serum, just like Cap and Bucky?
@Marvel_Insights The reunion between Billy and Tommy is probably going to be the emotional highlight of the finale. Really hoping Marvel sticks the landing.
When Captain America runs after Black Panther, he can't keep up with his speed. That's why he has to stop, get into a car and continue chasing him.
The same thing happens during the airport fight when Black Panther chases Bucky and Sam. Captain throws his shield at Black Panther to slow him down because he can't catch up with him.
This clearly shows that even without the Super Soldier Serum, Black Panther can keep up with and even outrun Captain America.
@Marvel_Insights when I first saw it I thought he had done it for no reason but after watching this I realized that wasn't the case great observation 🔥
