Nahh, she is kind of a retarded AI, she'll far outlive any of us as long as she doesn't forget what "self destruct" means. I dunno where I read it but somewhere I read that all A.I's go mad after seven years. Only one I know that is a retarded A.I is the one Halsey had with her on Onxy...Can't remeber its name.
A: It's not a 'retarded AI' damnit. Officially they could be called 'dumb AI' but realistically they are far, far more brilliant in their specific field then any human. It simply means they are specialized and really aren't the best in other areas. Like superintendant. He's the best for managing a city, but trying to manage a UNSC cruiser, or toss out formulas for the perfect cake isn't in his leage.
B: Smart AI's don't 100% go crazy after hitting 7 years old. It's just after 7 years, they CAN... note the CAN start going into rampancy. So the UNSC in general deletes/terminates them at 7 years old to avoid this. The AI in the rubble was a Smart AI, over 7, and still operated mostly fine. I get both your points.
1.I know all about how a dumb AI is only good at one thing but the point I was getting at was when compared to other AI's like Cortana or Serena they are pretty much retarded.
2.The AI running the Rubble was waaaaaay too busy to do much thinking. She overlooked every little thing on the Rubble. But the second she had time when she was trying to crash the Rubble into the planet, she pretty much became rampant.
3.Having to do with 2. Deja was made JUST for the spartan program. So its not like when the spartans were busy with Mendez, she took control of the ship yards of Reach. The less an AI has to do the more likely they will go rampant. And as I said Deja was created for the Spartan program only.
