I agree with you. An AI also seems much more likely because it doesn't suffer from the weaknesses of organic(as we know it) life. It takes 100k years to go to that star system? No problem just powerdown with a simple watchdog. Radiation? No problem just replace sensitive parts every x years. I mean if you accept that aliens with this level of advancement exist then it's almost certain they must also have created true AI. Anyway I don't think intelligent aliens have visited us. I think the physics just makes it an improbability even if there is intelligent life in the universe.
