The Covenant's limited use and understanding of AIs stems from their beliefs. In Covenant mythology, it was [[Mendicant Bias|a form of self-aware AI]], referred to as an [[associated intelligence]], that led to the demise of the great [[Forerunner]] civilization by defecting to their enemies, the [[Flood]]. As a result, the [[San'Shyuum]] imposed a ban on this sort of technology under the [[capital punishment|penalty of death]].{{Ref/Reuse|ch188}} While less sophisticated AIs were allowed, machines that could actually "think" were prohibited.<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]''', "[[Wages of Sin]]", ''page 293''</ref>

Following the [[Human-Covenant War|fall]] of the Covenant, the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] and [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction|Covenant]] utilized "semi-feral" artificial intelligences to operate [[Type-56 Shrike]] turrets. As these constructs had been long abandoned, they could not communicate with modern [[Sangheili]] and had to be carefully monitored and locked down prior to activation due to their inability to understand contemporary [[Identification friend or foe|IFF]] systems and codeword usage.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/weapons/shrike-turret '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Shrike Turret'']</ref>
