We examine the Artificial Intelligence (AI) of the Halo, Star Wars, Mass Effect and the Culture Universes on today's episode of Sci-Fi factions compared!
We're going to look at, specifically, the Droids of Star Wars Legends Lore, the Forerunner AI (or ancilla) of Halo Lore, the Reapers of Mass Effect, and the Minds of the Culture.

I just wanna drop this quote from the IsoDidact about the only Precursor AI we have seen in the Halo universe. This AI was named Abaddon. "He now realized that it was a Precursor's version of an ancilla-one as far beyond those of the Forerunners as a keyship was to a wooden raft." - IsoDidact on Abaddon

If they every decide to write about the precursors the way that greg bear wrote the forerunner sage then Halo most likely moves up beyond the rankings of the Culture.

Halo is already beyond the culture. It simply involve larger scales, and comparable levels of sophistication. It is Culture Minds that are more impressive than Ancilla.

Everything is cranked up to 12 and runs off of rule of cool. But it's the people in 40K that make it awesome. For the most part they are ordinary folks just fighting to survive. In the Grimdarkness of the Far Future there is more than just War, there is real people too. That and everything is shades of grey. Nothing is *truly* black or white. It's all a matter of perspective.

If I remember the Leviathan DLC correctly from ME3, the Reapers were designed to only purge the Milky Way by their creators. Once they reached the level of technology that allowed them to pretty flawlessly annihilate the most advanced species every cycle, they basically went on autopilot. No doubt had they succeeded against Shepard, they might have made some changes to their process in the next cycle.

@adamharvey8444 2 жыл бұрын

Yes and no. The leviathans designed the reapers to ‘save’ the lesser races from creating and then fighting synthetics. The reapers solution was to purge the galaxy every 50,000 years, the reason being that synthetics would rise up and destroy their masters (which of course the reapers did themselves)

@swa5026 5 ай бұрын

The Reaper's harvest is basically shooting fish in a barrel. While they had to work hard to harvest the Leviathan since that cycle they would only allow civilization to progress to a point they can still be easily beaten. Over time they let too much to be known, yes leaving enough for the next civilization to have someone to attribute the mass relays and Citadel is helpful but letting them leave clues to a superweapon that can wipe out the reapers is a problem.

@capnsus1100 3 ай бұрын

In all honesty, the Reapers are kinda similar to the flood: they take living creatures and use them to add to their own numbers. If Shepard and his crew did not stop the Collectors (an indoctrinated race from the previous cycle), there would have been a human reaper, and likely also an asari, turian, salarian, krogan, batarian, and whatever other species im forgetting about

The UNSC actually doesn't have that many problems other than space pirates but they are stopped by the UNSC navy almost all the time.

To add to this (a little late I suppose), majority of a mind is situated in hyperspace, and when this part of them is removed from hyperspace, they can still stack the entirety of their consciousness inside of them, with the only problem being that they lose their personality (or something along those lines, it’s been a while since I’ve read a culture book) during it. Pretty sure this is found in consider Phlebas with the occasional segments featuring the mind.

What kinda breaks my heart about this and I'm sure it was mentioned, the Reapers were originally written for another purpose but due to a leak of Mass Effect 3's information or something, they altered the story highly (as I understand it). The reapers were originally harvesting races in order to try and figure out a looming threat of some kind of dark energy that was causing stars to collapse. I'm SEVERELY paraphrasing here, but I'm pretty sure that was said somewhere- and it gives them more of an altruistic, neutral vibe than what we got. I know all stories go through many iterations before settling into a single canon, but this one is very notable because what they went with completely changes their nature and also disregards foreshadowing from the previous games (in my opinion.) Feel free to tell me I'm wrong, it has been what- almost a decade? Since I was a Mass Effect NUT! lmao

Simply because the more Orks You kill the more of them will come.

Necrons can't reproduce, they're robots. The Prometheans Watchers can resurrect destroyed Prometheans, also the Crawlers, Watchers, and Soldiers are true AI, so they can be replaced with ease. I bet the Prometheans have a device for containing energy, and the C'tan are living energy. Halo has Gauss cannons, and the Prometheans can use them. As for the Orks, remember that Krogan also reproduce at a high rate, and the Krogan are smarter.

I really enjoyed this video. And the addition of the Culture was pretty neat, too. Although I have to say, I think why the Reapers seem to be stagnant isn't necessarily a flaw, or at least not one they haven't accounted for. They are, after all, performing a massive experiment on the universe, and when performing an experiment, you want to try to eliminate as many variables as possible. One variable might be the Reaper's own technological level, so they may be maintaining it at a certain level to act as a bit of a control, or a consistent foundation. Regardless, great video!

I think in one book he had an intelligence scale, but beyond the drones it becomes irrelevant compared to the quantum computing General System Vehicles. Author was way ahead of his time. I still remember how the GSV's had force fields because of their height and the pressure would get to high or low, he just seemed to think about everything.

@Rylus571 6 жыл бұрын

Orks don't have a nervous system like any other organic being. infact all their organs are fluid in a fungal sack plus when an ork dies they release spores which in turn create more orks. Flood require a nervous system to infect and if it's not there or damaged in some way then they can't infect you. Just like the flood orks get more and more dangerous as they grow in number and unlike the flood we have seen they create ships, weapons, vehicles that shouldn't work at all but do any way.

Regarding the Reapers, it shouldn't be hard to know why they haven't advanced. Their entire purpose is essentially to be the managers of a millennia long experiment by The Catalyst to find a solution to the original problem it was presented with (finding a way to prevent synthetics from destroying their organic creators). Thus, they are inherently limited by their original directive. I think the Geth would have been a better candidate, or even EDI, as these were allowed to develop on their own, and in different paths.

@lolroflroflcakes 5 жыл бұрын

Important point, if a Culture mind wants to be a literal god they can do that. They just start up a simulation of a universe so perfect that this could actually be one right now and mess with it on as large or as small of a scale as they want all while they have countless copies running in tandem so they can mess around with different choices and the like. Consider how much processing power it would require to perfectly simulate every last bit of data that makes up our universe. As they do this they also have the time to care for their meat bags, fulfilling their every little want and desire within socially acceptable bounds, run the enormously complex ring-worlds, craft-worlds or other ships that make up their bodies, ensuring their galaxy spanning 'government' continues to run smoothly and cracking every little question about the universe that is left for them to solve.

Yeah, this is actually dealt with in one of the books - they actually have a moral duty when creating their simulations to not make them too accurate/Real because they essentially become indistinguishable from reality lifeforms.
