I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Actually It explained in the book that Cortana chose master chief out of all the spartans so he was the only one. And he was the leader and Dr. Halsey was talking about it for a while.
I know, because Cortana had special qualities and a personal connection to Halsey, so Halsey gave her first pick.
I'd like to add that even the a "smart" AI is individual due to their creation process, it is worth mentioning that this will not alter their abilities. Cortana is who she is and is capable of what she is based off of the person she was created from, Dr. Halsey. She was given liberties by Halsey that other AI's don't have, but those liberties do not expand outside of the capability of the hardware that they are connected to.
Example, an AI would not be able to offer visual benefit to a Spartan, as they cannot effect a Spartans eyes, nor can they push the Mjolnir visor farther than it's own software. That being said the idea of individual AI offering special benefits, I don't see how that would make any practical sense, unless we are talking about intelligence related benefits, i.e. maps, enemy info, alternate routes, access to weapons lockers, possibly and unregistered airdrop of a vehicle, etc, etc, etc.
That "Smart" AI individuality, actually provides them with the ability to gain, or not gain skills in the same way one person can be good at Halo, and another can be good at Basketball, this is why some AIs can, in fact, offer their own individual benefits to a Spartan. Cortana is a spectacular Hacker AI, where as another AI may be a better Pilot, or another could be better at taking advantage of the Mjolnir Battle Suits functions.
