Which claim does the burden of proof land on? That an artificial super intelligence can easily be controlled or that it cannot? And what is your rational for deciding?

The claim that there's a possibility of a sudden intelligence explosion.

Like i said above you can argue that an AGI can be realized because there's plenty of us running around on earth but claims about a hypothetical super AGI are unfounded and akin to Russell's Teapot.

Ok, in a converse question, why would evolution create the human mind as the most intelligent possible system?

So I ask, are systems capable of better than human intelligence possible? And if so to what factor?

I would answer yes and unknown. If there are states of intelligent far greater than human then that gets really risky very fast.
