I'm not that confident that if we put you in a box, tron-style, where you basically continued to enjoy your existing level of intelligence, but think 10'000x faster, have Petabytes of information at your fingertips and can clone yourself and losslessly and rapidly exchange knowledge with your clones and had a few days to think about it (~a few thousand years of thought at your normal speed) you couldn't figure out a way to effect a bunch of orders to DNA factories without anyone raising an alarm.
Are you?
Now what if we actually consider an actual AI after a few self-improvement steps. Any reasons to expect it wouldn't be 10'000x+ smarter than you as well, or roughly the difference in intelligence between you and an ant? Could you outsmart a bunch of ultra-ultra-slow-motion ants?
