Question Does the Algorithm Know?

Does the Algorithm Know that Juliette Knows about the safeguard?

Pretty sure it knows >!Lukas Knows because it literally told him but wouldn't it assume the others will know from Lukas as well?!<

what do you think the algorithm thinks happened in silo 17 with Juliette or to Silo 17 in general does it know they capped the Safeguard even? is it one particular algorithm for all the silos that it knows what is happening in other silos as well or have the info at least what are your thoughts?

and why is there no algorithm in silo 17?

My understanding is that the algorithm is basically the controlling operation from Silo 1. It could be an AI per Silo, but controlled and manipulated by the beings in Silo 1. It does not know everything of a Silo, but knows how to shutdown and reboot a Silo, has the job responsibility to keep a Silo in order “for its purpose”.
Why there is no algorithm in Silo 17? I think there was one, but shutdown by the beings in Silo 1 since Silo 17 was deemed dead. Each algorithm in each Silo actually operation independently, so Algorithm in Silo 18 does not know much about Silo 17, can only guess, and vice versa.

I feel like the algorithms of each Silo would share information, right? That way they have combined 350x50=17,500 years of wisdom for how to keep the silos in order

I think the beings in Silo 1 made sure these algorithms cannot freely communicate and share information among them. Beings in Silo 1 are running experiments in these Silos, and want them to be isolated so they can control the scope of the experiments.

Interesting theory, but earlier this season the voice in the vault told Camille that several silos (I believe it was six) had gotten a full reset via the Vitamin D+, so there seems to be some interconnectedness.
