Play nice guys, he's new.
There are a number of possible idea's/theories relating to that little floating SOB. I'll give an overview of some...
IMO, I think he is or will become a Rampant AI, though I seriously think that Cortana has more evidence supporting this than 343 but, *shrug* who knows. He's been locked away by himself for over 100,000 years. Who knows what has happened to him in that time? Though to become Rampant he needs a planetary network to expand, and he may or may not have been in Halo's network, I doubt he was since when Cortana was uplaoded into the control room 343 never knew she was there until she appeared before him. So this idea might be a bad one.
Another possible idea is that he goes to another Halo ring, (by what means is another topic altogether), and perhaps we run into another monitor, but Bungie stated we'd be going to ruins of another Halo, so perhaps he goes thier assuming the monitor of that installation is erased.
Another idea is what will he do with all that data he has on human history, will he go to the Covenant? That seems doubtful since he favored humans, (he acted as if WE are Forerunner), but who knows now after what happened in the game. His job was being he monitor of the installation. Halo 04 is destroyed, he has no purpose, so what will he do? Go insane? Seek vengence? Or try and continue his programmed duties in a different light? Perhaps this freedom is what makes him become more self aware thus turning Rampant... but again this ties into what I first said.
These are just a few... others have thier own ideas/theories.
