Do you belive current iteration of AI has the potential to become superhuman? I think it's like trying to get to the moon by building a better ladder.
I don't know what you mean by current iteration but what I do know is that general-purpose LLMs can already beat the very best of human intelligence some of the time (recent examples). So it won't take very long for a few more breakthroughs to be made which will enable general-purpose AIs (LLMs, other neural networks, or something else entirely) to beat human intelligence most of the time, and then 90% of the time, then 99.9999% of the time. AI is already doing a lot of the coding to make AI and it could discover better alternatives to LLMs.
We never needed that much computational power to get our shit together to begin with. It's just a power grab by the rich. If we wanted to fix stuff with cybernetics we could just implement the viable system model - Salvatore Allende style.
