Editing Riemann matrix

The '''Riemann cycling-thought Matrix''' is a central component in the programming of [[UNSC]] [[Artificial Intelligence]] constructs. It contains a code directory, where all the impulses in the [[AI]]'s mind exist. It is effectively the [[AI]]'s brain. The matrix is not a physical object by itself, rather it is a program, allowing the [[AI]] to be stored in a [[Data Crystal Chip]] for mobility.

==Fail-safe==
Some [[AI]]'s have personal fail-safes. Dr. Halsey stated that not all [[AI]] have such a fail safe, rather, only the "important" ones. In case of [[Rampancy]] or other danger to [[humans]] caused by the [[AI]], the fail safe can be activated. It works by generating a pulse beam of high frequency ultraviolet light in the Riemann matrix, destroying the higher thought functions of the [[AI]]. This effectively erases the [[AI]]. It is unknown how common this information is since [[Araquiel]] ([[James Ackerson]]'s AI) failed to recognize the fail safe. This indicates that the information is kept secret from the AIs for obvious reasons.

It should be noted that the matrix failsafe was used by [[Dr. Halsey]] to shut down both [[Araquiel]] and [[Kalmiya]].

==Method of Function==

Because AIs are essentially copied human minds, the Riemann matrix is likely to be a software model of the human brain, similar to real-life proposals to create AI. The information stored in the matrix is, in essence, models of what happens inside human neurons. Each piece of the matrix is connected with others, allowing currents similar to those inside a human brain. Because the fail-safe uses high-frequency light, it can safely be infered that the currents are made up of light. The fail-safe would create interference and destroy the AIs mind in much the same way as running through a human brain would to a human. The matrix's name is probably a result of a non-linear nature (Riemann was a 20th century mathematician would made several breakthroughs in non-linear geometry. <ref>[[Wikipedia: Bernhard Riemann]]</ref>).

-The '''Riemann cycling-thought matrix''' is a central component in [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[artificial intelligence]] constructs. It contains a code directory, where all the impulses in an AI's mind exist; as such, it is effectively an AI's "brain". The matrix is not a physical object itself; rather it is a program, allowing the AI to be stored in various forms of hardware, including a data center's [[nano-assemblage]]<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 182''</ref> or a [[data crystal chip]] for mobility.
