    If you engineer it so, yes. The ethics of doing so should be
    interesting.

    A more enlightened approach would be the AI acknowledging the need
    for floor cleaning and formatting a sub-routine that in fact feels
    gratified by performing this task, or just mechanically performs
    it because it lacks sentience.
