==Operational history==
On [[2530|December 28, 2530]], after the [[Battle of the Great Bear]], Solipsil recorded [[ONI Directorate Memorandum Interrogation Findings]], a log of the interrogation of [[Subject 386]].<ref name="FoR"/> In a [[Conversations From the Universe#Cortana and Solipsil|conversation]] between Solipsil and fellow [["Smart" AI]] [[Cortana]] in [[2550]], they were comparing AIs to [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]], though Solipsil argued that Spartans are in a better position than AIs.<ref>''[[Conversations from the Universe]]''</ref>
 
==Conversation with Cortana==
:'''AI-CORTANA'''> I had a discussion with [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]] about the similarities between a Spartan and an AI. Her point was that we're both human-created tools, both sentient and both play a leading role in the protection and safety of populace. But her analogy troubled me I told her so.
