*Rampancy is the AI equivalent of human [[Wikipedia:psychosis|psychosis]]. As with psychosis in the human mind, the AI's "mind" (specifically its [[Riemann matrix]]) loses its connection with reality as its logic subroutines loop back upon themselves and begin to overwrite one another. Another aspect of this can be seen in the ''[[Halo 4]]'' level [[Midnight]], where Cortana "ejects" her corrupted subroutines, which appear as numerous versions of herself. These fragments of her original matrix would be the equivalent of the human psychosis known as [[wikipedia:Dissociative identity disorder|Dissociative identity disorder]]. | *Rampancy is the AI equivalent of human [[Wikipedia:psychosis|psychosis]].
