I wouldn’t go that far; using these systems to do recursive self-improvement via different learning paradigms (e.g. by designing simulators) could still get FOOM; it just seems less likely to me to happen by accident in the ordinary coarse of SSL training.
In short, while concerted effort could plausibly give us human intelligence, it is likely not to go superhuman and FOOM.
