For instance, AI uses grey goo to dissolve organic substances like monkey meat, then uses the flesh materials to heal brute damage on the crew
It would be neat if the grey goo had positive AND negative uses.
The grey goo could eat monkey meat and then dispense bicardine or other valuable items, OR it could dissolve crewmen bodies, possibly while they are still alive.
Perhaps it could even be used to give the AI a organic metal body (With an admittedly high resource requirement)
A way for AI to reuse the parts of the station that it doesn't see vital seems a lot more useful in an emergency then the ability to kill people with doors.
