Re: begs the real world question

In Response To: Re: begs the real world question (Ross Mills)

: I don't remember it saying exactly seven years, I have a feeling people got
: that from Marathon, but it's possible I'm mistaken.

: And there's also the possibility that Cortana, being taken from a living
: brain and not a dead one, is different to other AIs, she may be different
: and be able to live longer.

Halo:TFoR p235:
"She would pay a price for her genius, however. Such growth eventually led to self-interference. Cortana would one day literally start thinking too much at the expense of her normal funstions. It was as if a human were to think with so much of his brain that he stopped sending impulses to his heart and lungs.
Like all the other smart AIs that Dr. Halsey had worked with over the years, Cortana would effectively "die" after and operational life of seven years."

Ross, I don't know what to say. Usually you're on the ball. I'm sure we can overlook this one oversight. j/k I'll just jump at any chance to take TFoR off the bookshelf...
