I'm not really sure what you're saying, but sure, we've had superhuman intelligences for at least 200 years, when Babbage invented the difference engine.

You might object that the intelligence of an abacus is manifest not just in a device but in an amalgam of human and device. But isn't the same true for all computation that humanity has so far harnessed?
