That will merely kill everyone.

"As bad as it can get" is an AI that, either by accident or due to malign influence, takes "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" as a guide book.

Actually, I take that back, it would be what happens in the hells in Surface Detail.

Surface detail was one of those books that messed with my head a bit. A much worse example was Blindsight.
