It can be assumed that Sigma-- Agent Maine's AI Fragment-- was suffering from Rampancy and had possibly achieved Metastability...or he renamed himself (and Maine) the Meta in relation to his plan-- to absorb the other AIs in hopes of becoming the Alpha. Actually, Sigma's desire was to BE HUMAN. He had not reached Metastability, he wanted it.

Price and the Director told him that it is only theoretical and that even if it was true, Sigma was a fragment and this was for full AIs. Sigma took a leap of faith and tried to assemble all the fragments in hopes that they can all combine to reach metastability or as Sigma would prefer it, Humanity.
