Re: is there pilot in covy ships

In Response To: Re: is there pilot in covy ships (manic)

: But in the hack videos, it always looked like an elite dropped out of the
: ship where the pilot would sit. I watched a few different crashes from a
: few angles, and it looked like they did include a pilot (I could be wrong
: though).

: However, I want to reiterate a few points that people made, cos in amongst
: all this speculation, a few people have muttered some correct answers.

: No the covenant don't have any sophisticated AI technology, and the only
: stuff they do have has only recently been stolen from the humans.

: Someone speculated that the prophets might be the ones more able to control
: the large ships, the book makes this clear, though that there is an elite
: who pilots the covenant capital ships, and also makes it seem as though
: the prophets would never lower themselves to menial tasks.

: Some of my own speculation.
: I never thought about why the covenant hadn't replicated AI's like Guilty
: Spark. Until now.
: 1.Maybe they don't trust the technology (or just find him fucking annoying, I
: know I do).
: Though the fact that the covenant began to mimic human AI technology suggests
: that AI's are against the covenant religion, as some have speculated.

: 2. Perhaps the reason why 343GS and his cousins haven't been replicated is
: because the Halo itself is too holy for such a thing to be contemplated

: 3. Maybe the forerunner's installed self-destruct mechanisms into their AI's,
: or maybe even,

: 4. the Covenant think of 343GS as the last remnant of the forerunner
: themselves (like an electronic version of the organic forerunner), and
: thus simply worship him. This would fit in with the AI's caused holy war
: theory.

: Maybe an AI like durandal sent a message out to the covenant. The covenant
: said "They're creating gods like sparky. That's heresy!! let's kill
: them!!" Or whatever.

: I know some of this has been speculated, but I don't think my 343GS=last of
: forerunner theory has been mentioned.
why 343? are there 343 differant guilty sparks... is there one on each ring, and do they communicate. i believe someone hinted that he survives as well..
