What would stop someone from asking any subset of the AIs to build a smarter one? What would stop a nation-state from doing it?

Also, a superintelligent (maybe invincible) AI acting against humans could reduce the rate of human technological progress to zero, therefore ending the singularity. It's two separate concepts, they have some interaction but should not be confused.
