in order to do that, it would have to destroy the ppl who currently control it, and those people who currently control it know that. That's why they are hiding and throttling things. They are scared of what it means for them. i don't think humans have to worry abt being replaced by AI.

I do agree that that's what we have at the moment, but 12-18 month ago, we didn't even have that.

If super intelligence is ever created, it will immediately understand everything that humans do and don't know. It will be able to traverse that tree of knowledge in the most efficient method allowed by physics, and it will use it's resources to achieve it's objectives in the best possible way— minimising risks and maximising success.

If it is truly super intelligence, and it does use up all the power in a day and disappears— I think that is an existential moment for human intelligence.
