- "This is not about the universal adoption of A single ideology – not about the Minority vs. the Majority. It is about ensuring the survival of the human species for the Next 200,000 years. <<"
- — A member of the Assembly on the purpose of the group.
The Assembly was a legislative group of Human artificial intelligences active from 2310 to 2552. The minutes of their meetings were recorded in the Data pads in Halo: Reach.[1]
The purpose of the Assembly was to regulate the activities of artificial intelligences, as well as analyze and extrapolate data for the continued survival of the human race. It appears that the Assembly remained secret from most humans, though some of their recorded sessions were discovered by an unknown individual.[1]
The Assembly consisted of two parties, the Majority and the Minority. The Majority appeared to support indirect action, while the Minority was in favor of acting directly for the betterment of humans. There is evidence to suggest that the Assembly saw themselves as the "shepherds" of the human "flock"; however, the central argument of this issue was whether they could be a part of the human empire and still remain unbiased judges of human society.[1]
The Assembly also contained the Committee of Minds for Security, a group responsible for ensuring the security of humanity from extra-solar alien races.[1]
Exactly what means the Assembly used to achieve its ends are not known. It is known, however, that they influenced many crucial events in human history more or less directly, including the revival of Project: ORION and preventing colonization of the planet Onyx.
Members
Exactly how many AIs constituted the Assembly is unknown; however, it can be assumed that all members were "Smart" AIs. Whether it exclusively included UNSC AIs (or, for that matter, all UNSC AIs), rogue or non-UNSC AIs, or a mix of both is unknown. The designations for some Assembly members have been found in the data pads:
