Humans use AIs, both "Smart" or "Dumb", to perform a variety of specific tasks. These include, but are not limited to, controlling planetary shipping operations like [[Sif]], managing agricultural operations like [[Mack]] or serving as a [[Planetary Security Intelligence]] like [[Loki]]. One example of civilian use for "Dumb" AIs is managing an entire city's infrastructure. These constructs are known as Urban Infrastructure AIs. All of [[Earth]]'s [[Space Elevator|tether]] cities are managed with the help of such construct. Urban Infrastructure AIs perform a wide variety of basic tasks, examples such as driving the city's garbage trucks to operating the traffic lights. They can also work in cooperation with the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] if needed. One example of this is the [[Battle of Mombasa]], when [[New Mombasa]]'s AI, the [[Superintendent (Construct)|Superintendent]] assisted the UNSC forces in the city in fighting off the Covenant. | Humans use AIs, both "Smart" or "Dumb", to perform a variety of specific tasks.

Some human "Smart" AIs, such as Cortana, are able to separate themselves into multiple runtimes or "fragments". This can | |||
be beneficial when the AI needs to perform multiple tasks or be in multiple places simultaneously. Fragmenting can also occur accidentally, such as with the AI [[Melissa]]. | |||
The [[Cole Protocol]] states that capture of an AI by the Covenant is unacceptable. When in danger of capture, AIs are to be terminated and completely erased. However, the AI Cortana did find what seemed to be an extremely fragmented copy of a human AI stationed in the Covenant flagship, ''[[Ascendant Justice]]''. | The [[Cole Protocol]] states that capture of an AI by the Covenant is unacceptable.
