Ghost in the Shell is a lot earlier (and more awesome). I always thought The Matrix borrowed the idea, changed a few details, and made the story big. With GITS humanity isn't being inslaved by machines though, it's running on it's own pure awesomeness. Plus, GITS explores the idea of the "neural net" more than The Matrix.

not the same, but Matrix was in part inpired by Ghost in The Shell

Actually the Wachowski bros. said that they got the idea of the Matrix from a manga comic (source: "The Making of the Matrix" - Special Features on DVD) but I can't remember which one. GITS was a comic before it was a movie so... *scoures the internet*
