That isn't really a cohesive argument given that every entity you've mentioned can be and are eradicated by human-level intelligence, which is *not* an intelligence that is vastly greater than any earthly intellect.
We are simply marginally more intelligent and that has resulted in massive gains.
An entity with an IQ of 1,000,000 after six hours of recursive self-improvement would be *vastly* more intelligent.

Evolution is much like that old sporting adage, "you can only beat what's in front of you". I think there are a lot of assumptions about the nature of evolution to assume that life wouldn't find a way. Even saying that intelligence is an ability for pattern recognition but the patterns that you need to recognise to grow more intelligent are ever more complex and obscure. How much compute power is an IQ of a million? Where does it get its energy from? How does it process the complexity in the greatest patterns in a reasonable amount of time and space. What is going on that much faster than we experience time at that is worth perceiving?
