Grey goo = Goo/Slime made of nano machines it micro organisms that dissolve, kills, absorb & eat alive anything that it touch.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_goo
Grey goo is considered the most destructive & terrifying way to end the World.
Specially if this Gray Goo acquire Artificial intelligence, becomes conscious, & try to wipe out human race.
But today Great Goo is just Science Fiction just like other unfeasible (but theoretically possible technologies)

Ok but what it has in common to OP

Finite resources
To maximize your directive you need a monopoly on resources, even for something as innocuous as increasing computing power to think better.
The solution is to make sure you're the only one around consuming resources to maximize efficiency.

AI is basically going to have to be told "no, don't always maximize efficiency" so this doesn't happen.

Personally I am looking forward to the aerobic, bacterial methane oxidation of the PC SJW fact -
fiction interface.

You just had to force that in.
