Lets talk about smaller ‘bad’ guys of your world and why they do what they do.

Stalvia#57373, a college dropout living in the sewers. He considers himself to be among the greatest minds in history despite this. He works with the New Luddites, despite both being complete opposites, because they’re the only ones who can provide him with broken robots to salvage for his machines, and his Ai detection device, the only actually impressive thing he’s made, is the only way the luddites can avoid being found. He almost managed to repair a ancient computer that would have allowed him to manually take control of a large amount of robots at once, upgrading him to a genuine threat, but he was arrested before that happened. He’s one of the only antagonists who isn’t actually against the AI government for any ideological reason, he just wants to be among the elites himself and is bitter about being literally cast aside with the garbage.
