it the books it mentioned that AI like cortana that are created by sending somthing through the human brain, hers was doctor hasley(not sure on spelling), any way it also said they have a limited life span, that they eventually think them selfs to death, but is it possible that shes dying so thats why her image was so messed up, and if so could that be why she is telling the chief of his past, and also sees the chiefs future, like shes overthinking and since shes a galaxy away there could be a chance there was some kind of slipspace rupture that gave her a window into the future, and warns the chief of events to come.

not sure on pst future thing, but im pretty sure shes dying

I think she's dying. The books mention a NORMAL AI, but Cortana is not normal. She's done A LOT more than the others, and I think her life span shortened because of it. My prediction is that, at the conclusion of the series, we see Cortana depart from the Halo universe.

no i agree, all the extra processing power she must of used to help the chief, not to mention all the strain her cpu must have taken from battle, especially in H1 and H2

Dying...no.

Slowly being currupted by forces unseen...much more likely.

Just the same old Cortana with mucho pimp graphics...just as likely.

We won't know until the game comes out. That's my bet. The answer to that question is a massive part of the story line and, unless it gets leaked, Bungie isn't going to share.

"On the seventh day, god did not rest, but rather he created 64 player multiplayer!"

I very highly doubt Cortana has the ability herself to see the future. She only knows what she's been through, the places she's been, and whatever information humans gave to her about human history and whatever...

When she says " i know your past, your future..." it's pretty obvious to me that the Gravemind is simply using Cortana as a device by which he can use to speak to the MC (if that is in fact who he/she is speaking to).

The Gravemind is a psychic kind of being so it would be possible for him to see the future I suppose but Cortana can definitly not foresee anything of the future...predictions of course, but not definate events.
