"Dumb" AI's are AI's that only have one function, in this case, the Superintendents function is to run the City of New Mombasa and its Orbital Space Tether. New Mombasa was the first city to be chosen as a "Tether City", once the Tether was complete, "New" Mombasa recieved an AI to run and oversee the City and its Tether. Superintendent has most likely been active for a few hundred years, maybe like 200 or 300? cant remember when Mombasa was chosen, so if its been going that long without being rampant, i doubt this thing even can go rampant. This thing still has its ability to reason seeing as how its telling the Rookie when to go, where to go, and what to do. Superintendent can still function like it always has, but instead of saying things that would normaly make sense, its messages are like a form of coding, you have to think about it before understanding it. Like at E3, in the gameplay of Dutch, when the charges are set, one of the ODST's says "Come on Super, unlock the keypad!", Si says "Respect Public Property." Now Si saying that, he just means he does not want there to be anymore damage to New Mombasa than there is already. Once the ODST's quickly explain what would happen if they dont blow the bridge, he unlocks the keypad and says "Toll accepted, have a nice trip." Now that to me means, lol, your not getting to me, have a nice day in hell.
With that in mind, Superintendent is still fine, its just that his ability to be understandable at times was compromised when the EMP blast damaged his data core.
(Also, dont flame at me for calling Si a he, Si comes off as a he to me.)
