Abilities the AI should have

[Nnystyxx]

For giving AI more powers, I always had the idea of making the AI control console useful for more than just killswitching. Maybe for AI powers that may be a bit too powerful or destructive, they would be disabled by default, but someone with a command ID could use the control console to enable them.

I rather like this idea, of the AI having to smoothtalk somebody into turning on the dangerous abilities. Or the Tater letting them go whole hog once they've established a trust relationship (read: the traitor knows the AI can follow orders).

and then the ai kills him with 100 laser drones because he misspelled something in the law, so the ai was only helping him for fun

also yes please make the ai having to mess with intercoms less frustrating. just a quick toggle would be preferable to messing w/ channels

edit: basically, I want the AI to be an overseer, helper, and task manager when non-rogue/helpful, and a cruel panopticon, annoyance/danger, and schemer when rogue. i want it to ooze personality and function and make it far more of a power play to subvert the ai, but also make the ai a much better tool to have on your side !!AND!! make it so that the response to any malfeasance isn't killswitching, because you're destroying someone who's potentially very useful if you cure them of being evil
