Intelligence isn't everything; there's also effort, skills, and hours in the day. But AI (by supposition, for now) can outcompete humans on all four and would have fewer informational bottlenecks. Imagine a big company or government; they mostly nowadays work as an entity by passing around bits of data (either literally or with more traditional communication that can represented as bits of data). Now imagine you replace the constituent units of those organizations with the most brilliant, hard-working humans, who are perfectly aligned on mission and understand each other perfectly. That is the danger of a sufficiently capable AI. That assumes superhuman intelligence, but that's the scenario to worry about in the case we do get there. Not how much an individual human could do with superhuman skills.
