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.
Each AI has a personal fail-safe. 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 should be noted that the matrix has a failsafe used to shut down both Araquiel and Kalmyia
