one important thing you left out - the ability to reproduce and thus "evolve" naturally, and at scale, to essentially keep improving its own brain to the point it outpaces current human researchers in self-improvement. If not reproduce, maybe reincarnate itself in version 2.0, 3.0, etc...

Yeah, I guess I was heading in that direction with the last point. Earth organisms have a separation between lifetime learning (brain modification) and genetic evolution, but, for AGI, these could be combined into one, or further separated into three or more methods of goal-directed modification.
