Cortana: everything you need to know about Microsoft's Siri rival.

To anyone who's played the Halo games, Cortana needs no introduction:

she's an advanced artificial intelligence and Master Chief's only real friend.

Cortana is currently the code name for a whole new way of controlling

Windows Phone, and in the longer term maybe Windows too.

Cortana is a fictional artificially intelligent (AI) character in

the Halo video game series.

The origin of Cortana is not explained in the video games, but in

the Halo novels. Her first chronological appearance in the story is in Halo:

The Fall of Reach, a 2001 prequel to the first Halo game.

Cortana is constructed from the cloned brain of Dr. Catherine Elizabeth

Halsey, the creator of the SPARTAN Project.

According to the Halo novels, Cortana is classified as a "smart" AI,

meaning that her creative matrix is allowed to expand, in contrast to the

limited matrix of other "dumb" AI characters in the stories.

Cortana will allow Windows Phone users to set how they want to be

addressed by the voice-activated assistant.

Cortana can call users by their name or nicknames like "Master Chief"

after the function is enabled in the settings.

A key part of Cortana is its ability to save information and data in a

Notebook system.

Notebook will allow the Cortana digital assistant to access information

such as location data, behaviours, personal information, reminders, and

contact information

Cortana can also track flights or other mentions in emails, allowing it to

generate notifications similar to Google Now.
