As exemplified by the [[Monitor]]s, the [[Forerunners]] have developed a civilization with an extremely advanced knowledge of artificial intelligence technologies. Forerunner AIs have managed to achieve full sentience and are highly intelligent.  
As exemplified by the [[Monitor]]s, the [[Forerunners]] have developed a civilization with an extremely advanced knowledge of artificial intelligence technologies. Forerunner AIs have managed to achieve full sentience and are highly intelligent. Forerunners often had personal AI advisers, called [[Ancilla]]s, integrated into their [[Forerunner body armor|armor]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Cryptum]]''', ''Chapter 1''</ref> The most advanced type of Forerunner AI was the [[Contender-class Artificial Intelligence]].


The manner in which Forerunner AIs are created is unknown, yet is probably very different from the [[human]] method of cloning the intelligence of a sentient organism. Monitors, and possibly other Forerunner AIs are physically represented by large, shielded and roughly spherical metallic "robots" whom possess a single "eye", which is possibly used to perceive the monitor's physical surroundings. The most well known of Forerunner AIs are the protocol-obsessed [[Monitors]], made famous by [[343 Guilty Spark]] and his quirky (and somewhat unstable) nature.
