The director of the new Terminator movie gave an interesting quote at the recent geek-fest of Comic-Con where he talks about why the machines are collecting humans:

“Harvesters collect human beings and rip the stem cells out of them and work on the human being so they can create the Schwarzenegger T-800 model, which was the machines’ ultimate infiltration unit.”

Oh! The humanity! Imagine how inhuman those movie machines must be to use humanity for their own ends just to get their stem cells?! Whew. Thank goodness it’s just a movie. Whew…
