I don't know but my mind immediately went to grey goo.

  Because self-replicating nanobots is the definition of Grey Goo?

    Grey Goo is self-replication which is only optimized to self-replicate without bound, while consuming any and all local resources.

      A hegemonising swarm event, if you will.

  I think imgur might show things differently on different devices, but on PC the description mentions it: > Grey goo is molecular robots self-replicating endlessly. This is the more interesting Ackermann goo made from molecular computing of Ackermann(4,4). The idea is: if universal molecular computation is possible then by making a molecule which computes Ackermann(4,4), which is huge, we obtain a goo far more interesting than one made of many replica of one molecule.
