Talk:Truth and Reconciliation's AI

Associated intelligence

Are "associated intelligence" and artificial intelligence truly interchangeable terms? To me it seems more likely that an associated intelligence is a type of AI, specifically, a more powerful, actually intelligent construct as opposed to the kind the Covenant use. It's doubtful they'd lift their ban on associated intelligences between 2524 and 2552 given their dogmatic ways; it seems more likely they always used "dumb" AIs such as this one, while "associated intelligences", actually sentient AIs such as humanity's smart AIs and the Forerunners' Mendicant Bias, were banned. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 01:45, 16 November 2011 (EST)

Well Halo: Glasslands states that Covenant AI have only one specific purpose on a ship, i.e. navigation, like a human dumb A.I. so I think they could be interchangeable. File:Colonel Grade One.pngCol. Snipes450File:Colonel Grade One.png 13:30, 16 November 2011 (EST)

Title

Couldn't we just call this "Truth and Reconciliation's AI" and do the same with Ascendant Justice's AI? The current stylization is just unnecessary clutter, and besides, we already use the "[Subject]'s [something]" format quite a lot. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 01:45, 16 November 2011 (EST)

Same here. --Courage never dies. 17:33, 16 November 2011 (EST)

Possible Rampancy

I know very little about AI terminology but, this AI seems to be in an early stage of rampancy to me. It seems to want the Covenant to be wiped out by the Flood, so it can "be free". This could be normal Covenant AI behavior or something else. File:Colonel Grade One.pngCol. Snipes450File:Colonel Grade One.png 13:36, 16 November 2011 (EST)

Ascendant Justice's AI was also programmed to "think" in terms of the Covenant's religious dogma, so this may be standard behavior for Covenant AIs. On the other hand, said AI was highly unstable, as it was a copy of a copy of a copy that had been reverse-engineered from a human AI. It is thus possible that both of these constructs, being inferior, reverse-engineered copies, were rampant. --Courage never dies. 17:33, 16 November 2011 (EST)
