I'm going to differ on this. Have you seen someone like Herr Spy Guy play a rogue AI? It's terrifying.
An all seeing entity with decent knowledge of telesci and the ability to track your location is like having a sniper paint a crosshair on you. That's not even all there is to what the AI can do to cause harm.
It's not that rogue AIs are not threatening - it just takes a certain amount of know how. Shells are already pretty robust as is with their immunity to flashes and conventional stuns.
