Re: Do AIs lie?

In Response To: Re: Do AIs lie? (Wado SG)

: Cortana lies to Keyes about the randomness of the coordiates used to get to
: Halo. It was not random at all.

Well, based on my e-book version of FoR, she does generate random coordinates first, but then MC says that he thinks he's seen the symbols before, then "Cortana got a far off look in her eyes. The marks cycling on her hologram shifted and rearranged".

I take this to mean that Cortana's original random choice wasn't far off what was on the rocks, and MC's comments caused Cortana to change the coords to the ones from the rocks. Now she didn't lie (originally), it's just that she didn't say that she had changed things afterwards.

Now, the e-book version doesn't have the very last bit of the book apparently (when the arrive at Halo), so I could be wrong about this.

Ciarán.
