Humans are already perfectly capable of controlling engineers that are smarter than they are, so I'm going to say yes.

  Are they really? Those engineers need something those 'humans' have (i.e. money). I doubt you'll be able to make similar offer to the machine.

    > I doubt you'll be able to make similar offer to the machine. well, money is required for humans to survive, something which machines need to survive can be brokered as well f.e. power ?

      The difference is that money has one central source (e.g. government or independent organizations). Power can be procured from many different source and still be good (nuclear, heat, solar, you name it). The bottom line is that we can't really cut off the supply of power to a machine that is autonomous enough.
