==Biography==
Created by [[United Nations Space Command]] researchers at the [[Sydney Synthetic Intellect Institute]] in [[Sydney]], [[Australia]] on [[Earth]], Jerrod was one of the AIs in the ownership of [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]].{{Ref/Reuse|enc77}}
Created by [[UNSC]] researchers at the [[Sydney Synthetic Intellect Institute]] in [[Sydney]], [[Australia]] on [[Earth]], Jerrod was one of the AIs in the ownership of [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]].<ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]''', ''page 77''</ref> In [[2552]], during the final stages of the [[Fall of Reach]], Jerrod informed Halsey that the perimeter of [[SWORD Base]] was compromised by the [[Covenant]]. Although the base AI denied this, likely as part of ONI's cover-up regarding the extent of the Covenant invasion, Halsey chose to trust Jerrod instead.<ref name="journal"/>


On December 11, [[2529]], while Halsey was struggling to get access into the [[Kig-Yar point defense gauntlet]] Jerrod thought he had a solution.{{Ref/Reuse|journal}} On September 7, [[2547]], after Halsey's failed attempt to create a fractal AI housing within slipspace, she ported data to Jerrod for further analysis.<ref>[https://content.halocdn.com/media/Default/community/blogs/canon-fodder/halseyjournal_excisedleaves-6691217d69c54707b5a0fd97d0b25e77.pdf '''Halseys Journal ripped pages''']</ref>
Halsey took Jerrod with her as she and the [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartans]] [[Raid on Reach|escaped Reach]] and later when she stole the rebel ship ''[[Beatrice]]'', which Jerrod helped navigate. After they made it to [[Onyx]], Jerrod assisted Halsey in locating ONI AI [[Endless Summer]], and eventually discovering the entrance to [[Trevelyan|Shield World 006]].<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 162''</ref> He did not, however, accompany Halsey into the [[shield world]].

After [[Jameson Locke]] tasked an ONI [[dumb AI]] with searching for weaknesses in the active Spartan-II assets circa [[2558]], Jerrod repeatedly hindered the other AI's attempts to access classified files pertaining to Halsey's work, frequently mocking its inferiority in the process.<ref>'''[[Hunt the Truth|Hunt the Signal]]'''</ref>


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*For unknown reasons, Jerrod was not mentioned at all in ''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''. Halsey mentioned that she doesn't have an AI with her to translate Forerunner glyphs (suggesting Jerrod's inability to do so), and must do so on her own throughout her time in the shield world.
