An IQ70 AI is little more able to self-improve than a IQ70 human is able to improve an AI
This is not obviously true. We’re a lot less well optimized for improving code than some conceivable AIs can be: a seed AI with relatively modest general intelligence but very good self-modification heuristics might still end up knocking our socks off.
That said, there’s a much larger design space where this isn’t the case.

Human programmers at IQ 70 also can’t be run anywhere near as fast as AI programmers at IQ 70.
