You won't be on the beach when you get turned into paperclips. The machines will come and harvest your ass.

having played that when it came out, my conclusion was that no, i will definitely be able to be on a beach; i am too meaty and fleshy to be good paperclip
Sorry, we need the iron in your blood and bone marrow. Sluuuurrrrrpppp.... Enjoy the beach, or what's left.
Much better sources of iron are available.

More likely we get smooshed unintentionally as they AIs seek those out.

We need it all... oh, wait, you're not silicon... sluuuuuurrrrpp...
I don't get it - if they're coming for me anyway, then why would I need to move my ass from my beach chair?
