> Solar panels can collect more energy than photosynthesis. Planes can fly faster than any bird. Guns are far more effective than any animal's weapons. Steam engines can run more efficiently than biological digestion. And we can get power from fuel sources biology doesn't touch, like fossil fuels or nuclear. A gun isn't effective unless human loads it, aims it and pulls the trigger. All your other examples are the same. We do not have any machine that can build a copy of its self, even with infinite energy and raw materials just lying around nearby. Now consider what an "intelligent" machine looks like today: a datacenter with 100,000 servers, consuming a GW of power and constantly being repaired by humans. AI is nowhere near not needing us.
