> AGI is inevitable because computation is universal and intelligence is substrate independent.

Let's say Human Intelligence and AGI are subsets of General Intelligence, we don't know whether GI will actually subsist without the biological drive, AGI's might decide that hoarding resources/knowledge is futile in a finite universe and shut themselves down then reaching the halt state of this paradox. It might never be possible to achieve an AGI too different from the stealing/warmaking/miraculous HI.

I dont see how this is anything except lack of imagination. To imagine that life can only be made of meat is pretty strange. To imagine the only way of "being" in this universe, is to be nearly identical in construction and behavior to humans is absurd.
