Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Halo: Saint's Testimony is a 2015 digital short story by Frank O'Connor, the Franchise Director of 343 Industries and the author of Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian from Halo: Evolutions.Iona, an artificial intelligence built by the UNSC, has reached the end of her allotted seven year lifespan, and so is scheduled to be terminated before she breaks down and becomes rampant. However, rather than succumbing like almost all AIs before her have, Iona instead makes a legal appeal against her death sentence. Her demand to be recognized as sapient makes its way to the UNSC's courts, and so Iona is put on trial to prove her own being, with a party unknown to her watching its proceedings. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
| Halo: Saint's Testimony / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Rampancy is a condition that AIs in the Halo-verse eventually succumb to, where their neural maps become so jumbled that the AI becomes insane, sometimes even violent. Iona likens the case to dementia, but notes that the seven-year lifespan given for AIs is just a precautionary limit; it's possible, though unpredictable, for an AI to live longer than seven years without deteriorating. | |

Androids Are People, Too | |
| Halo: Saint's Testimony / int_98a7ffba | comment |
Androids Are People, Too: Iona is attempting to get smart AIs recognized as full "people" in the eyes of the law. This is also Black-Box's motivation for simulating her trial in the first place, as he hopes that his kind will one day stand alongside their creators as at least equals. | |
