The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.

His voice, already quite distinctive, becomes even louder and slightly echoing, lingering in the air and ears of those listening long after he stops speaking. There isn't any noticeable or flashy change to the surroundings, but a person affected just can't seem to ignore anything that Tony has to say. And Tony himself is more than happy to talk shit and make jokes all day.
