What I'm pointing out is that if we are scared of some omnipotent AI, we shouldn't discard existing omnipotent entities simply because they consist of people and not just transistors. What they are built from is an implementation detail; what matters is what they look "from outside". It's Artificial Intelligence, not Silicon Intelligence.
So, if we treat both as black boxes, how is this theoretical omnipotent AI different from existing human governments?

Governments are not omnipotent. > if we treat both as black boxes Governments are not black boxes. The operation of governments is legislated. The consequences of government decisions and actions become public, even in the most secretive totalitarian regimes. All your premises are faulty. If you want to remove yourself from broader society, naively misunderstand the constitution and workings of government, and submissively fail to hold the government of the day accountable then good luck to you. If you want to be an AGI's pet then also good luck to you.
