In the third book the covenant AI calls Cortana an "Infidel".When this happens she is confused.Infidel means an unbeliever with respect to a particular religion.This makes perfect sense to me because the covenant are fighting on behalf of thier gods.What I don't understand is why Cortana didn't get it. She is supposed to be super inelligent right?What do you think?

Jesus man think, she know what infidel means. She just didn't understand why an AI (computers don't have religion as far as I know) was calling another AI an infidel.

*snicker* Ok, that's just plain funny.

in·fi·del [ ínfid’l, ínfi dèl ] (plural in·fi·dels)

noun
1. heathen: somebody who has no belief in the religion of the speaker or writer
2. nonbeliever: somebody who has no religious beliefs


Seems simple to me what the AI meant.

I know she knows what it means but it would only make sense for the AI to call her that.

She was wondering what made her math calculations infidelish(? that's probably not a word). All she did was some complex math functions, and as far as she could tell, nothing to make a big deal about.

She wasnt stumped at why the AI called her an infidel. She was stumped because the covenant HAD AI's, that was unknown until then.

BINGO!!!!! If anyone besides me and kewt remember what happened then this topic wouldn't exist. U guys don't remember that there was no such thing as a covenant AI. Plus she was overloaded with all that precious halo information about the forerunners and the flood. Not to mention the multitasking she was doing when it happened. Sometimes people ask the stupidest questions like this topic. U think an artificial intelligence that can hack almost anything knows covenant language, witty personallity/proper english, can do almost anything like has faster reflex time than humans, thinks faster. There are other things too but the point is what u guys are saying sounds ridiculous. I don't mean to be harsh, but it seems like everyone who hasn't read the books (whoever started this topic I think did but I don't think he was thinking too hard about it) ask bogus questions. It takes up forum pages and is a waste of time, talking, and thinking.
