I think the truth was out back with Dr. Who #1 in The War Machines,
where in a somewhat similar plot to The Green Death the WOTAN
computer was able to hypnotise anyone within earshot.

Clearly computers have been hypnotising us since the sixties to
make us build far more of them than we could possibly need, and
more powerful than could possibly do us any good. After all, before
then lots of important people knew that we'd never need anything
like this many of them. :)

I don't usually go for fan fiction, but I think I'd give a Dr Who
+ The Matrix cross-over a look...

"The Boss" in The Green Death was built out of an ICT 1301, by the
way:
