“AI’s deteriorate after seven…”

This accompanied with Cortana screaming:

“I will not, allow you to leave, this planet!”

Make me sad, is something going to happen to Cortana D:

2

Rampancy is happening to her.

3

remember…she may achieve metastability

4

I think she was talking to the master chief.

> remember…she may achieve metastability

What is Metastability?

Basically, she overcomes Rampancy.

It’s a 4th stage of Rampancy that most AI don’t achieve.

Rampancy has 3 stages:

  • Sadness
  • Anger
  • Envy

Metastability is a possible “4th stage” in which an AI is able to move beyond ramapancy and become a true “person”.

double post…

Hopefully she dies. I’ll never forget how annoying she was in Halo 3.

Was she not being controlled by the Gravemind through that entire game?

I love having Cortana yell at me. She’s pretty freaking smart.

11

She’s on her period.

That joke is older than the ‘spartans never die, they just respawn.’ joke.

This sounds like something that will happen at the end of a future title in the Reclaimer trilogy.
