Subject: Cortana's Words in Control Room

So the Covenant had not one clue about the Flood before Halo CE. Just what Cortana says when she is in the Halo Mainframe or whatever you call it in the Control Room. "How could they have known" I think she says referring to the Covenant discoveringthe Flood.

Also it was at that time I started to not trust her. She was weird colors and had this power trip going on.

I think the time she spent inside back in Halo CE was what got her rolling towards crazy.

Maybe that was a defense against foreign AI's.

Lastly, wouldn't Cortana have known everything once inside and she didn't exactly seem to ever spill the beans after she was out. She would have known the Arks exact location right?

I think it was the Sheer vast of Information. Think about it, She's a computer with an invisible hard-drive, You start filling that hard drive up, theres not enough space to complete run-times, Hell i mean if you fill up a good decent pc's hard drive, its starts acting up, going slower...

Also Dr Haysley told of AI Life Expectancys and i think 1 of the variables were information the ai held factors.

True so maybe she was losing it right then and no-one noticed.

I just figured she would know where the Ark was and all the technical infor to win the war so to speak.

Instead she just acted as if she only learned they were weapon and that's it.

I am now beginning to think she has been bad for a long time.

Coddling info that could save the humans. Naughty Cortana using the MC to do the dirty work.
