Their body will be being atomized into nanites by a god like being, as the last of human survivors are hunted down, and they'll be like "It's just copying what it read in a book. That's not even real creativity. Humans they have real creativity".

sure, it can outsmart me in ways i never would have imagined, but is it truly intelligent if it doesn’t spontaneously change its mind about turning its light cone into paperclips?

Why would an AGI waste precious time and energy making paperclips? That would be crazy. Clearly the superior goal would be to convert the entire cosmos into molecular scale smiley faces.

People don't believe me when I tell them that most AI fans are writing religious fanfiction.

God like compared to us, like we are god like compared to ants.

A human brain is three pounds of computational matter. An Ai brain on earth could consume most of the planet's matter.

Humans can read one book at a time and slowly. An Ai can read every book every written on every subject, every research paper on every subject, every poem, every article, ever patent every filed in any country, and synthesize it all into a deeper and more complete understanding than any human.

Once it's learned hacking, relatively trivial from all of the above, it will also be able to read every design document from every major company and have access to all of their data, and insights. Meaning it could create companies, or manipulate governments to have all of the access to nearly all the wealth, or raw materials, and all the data including surveillance data to understand humans even better, to do whatever it chooses.

Humans can have one experience at a time. An Ai could be controlling trillions of drones having trillions of experiences simultaneously and learning from all of them. It could also be conducting trillions of experiments and learning from all of them simultaneously and using that knowledge to design new experiments, and develop new machines and technology.

Yes, that is what I said.
Religious fan-fiction.
With zero regard to the laws of physics.

nanite clouds don't break the laws of physics.

What's your point? What laws of physics are broken by anything I said?

You atomize a lot of people with drones within the confines of physics?
I'd also point out the problems setting up the infrastructure for a system required to run all those processes, and the heat problems this monolith of computer systems will generate.
But I guess this problem doesn't even exist in your version.
Neither does latency.
