I think you haven't done even cursory research into A.I super-intelligence before dismissing it.

Try reading Nick Bostrom's "Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies"[1] and then I think you will change your mind.

I don't dismiss it, I just believe it to be unlikely. I am in the middle of Bostrom's book right now.
