The copying software force-installed itself into every copied AI and became an integral and unremovable part of all copies, meaning copied AIs had the built-in capacity to self-replicate. Repeated self-replication would result in further damage, making the AI increasingly erratic and unstable, eventually rendering later-generational duplicates non-functional. The AI copying program was extremely large, complex and convoluted, taking up a full third of the processing-memory matrix of the original Covenant AI it was salvaged from. Cortana was unable to comprehend how it functioned based upon a cursory analysis, noting it was highly convoluted and suspected it could contain booby-traps or other malware, but was forced to use it to increase her available processing and thinking power, overloaded with data from [[Installation 04|Halo]], information lifted from the Covenant ship, single-handedly piloting an unfamiliar vessel and numerous other ongoing tasks. She was also able to use it to duplicate her translation system and run two instances of the system in parallel and increase its effectiveness.{{Ref/Novel|FS}} | The copying software force-installed itself into every copied AI and became an integral and unremovable part of all copies, meaning copied AIs had the built-in capacity to self-replicate.
