The compute in the Matrix wasn't handled with human brains. They used the bodies to generate energy, and kept the brains occupied with the simulation so they wouldn't reject the pods.

It doesn't make any sense, of course, because it's a movie.

But hey...if we're going to extrapolate wildly from sci-fi, let's at least know what the stories said.
