Which is what many of the auto-flushing toilets and urinals in the building I work in choose to do. And some dumbass engineer decided not to include a backup flush control on the urinals. :psyduck:

Ian McDonald wrote about a police division dedicated to dealing with out-of-control AIs in River of Gods. They were actually called exorcists - in McDonald's future India, AIs were legally classified as djinni (which apparantly are legally recognized entities even in present-day Indian jurisprudence), so when one got out of control, it would be labelled an evil spirit and cast out of its hardware. In other words, erased.
