Actually Terminator isn't that clear from the first movie, we get dream sequences, but its the all that followed it that really fleshes out what happened.
Anything Shirow Masumune based has more layers then a GM modified onion and I don't think there is such a thing as non ambiguous about any of his works.
It is only comparing apples and oranges if you take the whole work and nit pick, rather then taking it as an example of systems evolving past their original designs is kind of a old fruit with sci fi especially with VR and there are many takes on it.
VR + AI + crazy scientist = Come on expect the system to not behave!!!
