The complete time dependence of the stress-stress correlation functions in lattice gas cellular automata is calculated from the ring kinetic theory using numerical and analytical methods. This provides corrections, typically of 10-20%, to the usual molecular chaos calculations, where correlation functions decay exponentially. The resulting correlation function crosses over from an initial exponential decay to the long-time behavior calculated from mode coupling theory. The present theory, applied to the viscosity, accounts for a substantial part of the observed difference between the Boltzmann theory and simulations.
