If you want to be an absolutely colossal dick to someone who's under arrest as an AI/borg, keep turning off Beepsky and turning it on again before it finishes putting the handcuffs on to stunlock the dude.

Although it's probably best not to overdo this unless your laws allow you to cause harm to said person.
As a more general note, you can remotely disable/activate any tiny robots (Securitrons, medbots, etc.) as an AI and probably also as a cyborg! Extremely useful when dealing with emagged robots, or also for TRANSPORT of emagged robots if you're working with someone nefarious.

As an AI, if someone's trying to use the killswitch to shut you down, not only can you actually turn the thing off yourself (this doesn't turn the killswitch off for cyborgs, though, just for you!) but as long as you have the computer window up, you can disable it whenever you like. Yes, even if they've cut the cameras. And yes, even if they've cut the power. Don't try using the killswitch to shut down an AI. If the AI is competent, it will never work out.

Another tip: If you start hearing consistent, rhythmic taser blasts, it probably means someone's in the AI upload and isn't being too quick about shutting off the turrets. As the AI itself, you can also detect intruders through disproportionately loud noises that don't correspond with what you see on your cameras (for example, gunshot noises when you're not looking at anyone with guns) or non-radio chatter. You can then click the Disable Camera View button in your commands tab to automatically get your viewpoint back to your core, or you can click on your own name in the chat to start tracking yourself on the cameras.
