Pondering I am!
Yes very plausable indeed that computors could surpass ther designers intelligence. Also that other intelligence beyond our solar system has been surpassed by there own design.
When one considers the worlds leading astro physicists, and there are now plenty of mainstream consenses, that THERE ARE mutiverses, parallel universes each with there own multi-dimensions floating in the, what they call the "bulk" , and they say, possibly infinate numbers of them.
Experiments like the Haldron collider in Geneva, One in the US, much smaller, only 4kms in circumference, are colliding particals at near speed of light to back-measure "where the produced result disappears into another dimension! This is what they are now doing, spending billions, they know this exists.
So Intelligence surpassing its designers? I think highly plausable!
When one ponders the magnificants of all there is, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
Many movies come to mind
