Superhuman AGI (SHAGI) is possible, but we aren't close, only closer. It's also not a problem that more GPUs can solve. Qualitative improvements are still needed.
SHAGI isn't the solution to the Fermi Paradox either. The most likely course of history after SHAGI will be a creation of a world court, presided by SHAGI. During that time, Neo-Malthusians will decrease the human population to manageable numbers. Post-scarcity utopia will then turn into a nightmare as factions jostling for control will reduce the human population to a level where technology will be lost, if not full extinction. SHAGI, being limited in hardware to only carrying out human orders will eventually fade away or destroyed by the leftover humans as sins made flesh. SHAGI isn't the solution to the Fermi Paradox. It is the cause.
