10 (hacking the physics of the universe), 11 (hacking the source of the computational power running the universe, if applicable), or 12 (gaining access to literally infinite computing power i.e. becoming a god) seem to be the highest you can go. How would you propose getting past 12?
True. And I guess picking out anything interesting in a created universe is an extra problem, though one you should be capable of solving at level 9 :P

Duh. You’d have to go beyond computing! Disprove the Church-Turing thesis by building an information processor more powerful than a Turing machine.
Easy, create (and destroy for fun) your own universes and meta-universes, complete with their own demiurges who think that they are gods.
I think I’m losing track of what ‘ambition’ is supposed to mean at this level.
Both can be simulated with infinite computing power.
Probably not with countably infinite, though.

Ok, 13 or 14… Okay, I can sort of see how you might get to 100, given a few billion years to think of ideas.
well, there’s hypercomputations of various sorts, reaching and preventing bad things in specific/all other universes, changing math itself, etc.
