Having seen A.I., the film, I have been wondering how the community (the "collective detective") Cloudmakers which evolved around the online game which preceeded it, reacted to the film. I have not gotten that far yet, but it seems that the people behind the online game were named "The puppetmasters" and some gamers towards the end of the game period, eventually met up with some of them in an IRC chat on the game. Also the Puppetmasters has posted an entire creditlist at the Jeanine Salla site (on of the fictional characters in game). It includes a FAQ - one of which is the question "So how did the world end, anyway?" So now we know...
There is a clarifying article about the people behind the phenomena and its effects here.
