Subject: if cortana has recieved so much information lately...

does this not mean that she will die sooner? because it is stated that she will die becuase she will have too much information for her AI to cope with at some point. but with all this new information that she is learning, should we expect her to die in halo 3, sooner than expected?

your thoughts plz! :)

ummmmmmm idk it probably isnt possible for her to die because she is like a co-main character. without her mc would just be mc and not mc & cortana, also bungie would ruin the story if cortana died.

yes but lets say, at the end of halo 3, the forerunners are truly exposed and the real importance of the ark is revieled. cortana would gain soooo much information at this point. and becuase it is the end of the game, bungie can afford to let her die...

I am...whimsical today.

Apparently the more information she gets/processes/somethings then the shorter her life span will be. My estimation is that Cortana is around 6 months old, less than a year at most. All the Halo story so far has been set in 2552, and started in September. If Cortana was created for the scrubbed mission to capture a Prophet, then I guess she'd have been created around the Summer of 2552.
However, remember that if they use this in the story, they will have to introduce the concept of Smart A.I life spans, as it has only been mentioned in the books.

You know, that's a good point.
Maybe when she says "this is the way the world ends", she's referring to her world. Perhaps H3 is her time to die...
