Deploying floorbots to breaches, firebots to giant infernos, and cleanbots to big messes might actually let the AI help the station in a way other than by opening doors.

An army of amusing ducks.
+1 to all of this, whether it be through just pinging any existing non-emagged bots of type X to location Y, or highlighting a group of them to send the selected ones to the general area or tiles of the breach/emergency/etc. It would give the crew more reasons to create robots, since they'd be able to delegate the task of directing them to the AI, thus increasing its capacity to help the station (and giving the traitor more targets to emag, as a double-edged sword) without actually allowing it to necessarily hurt the crew.
EDIT: The way Frank_Stein suggested it'd be controlled sounds ideal, as I don't want to hunt down and wrassle all the bots when I need them so basically coders ignore my control scheme ideas
