I recently had Claude develop a huge application (barcode scanner, you can click the link to see it if you want, scan whatever you want), it first tried with both major open projects for this but it just didn't work. Then I had it write its own version from scratch. Without any WASM compiler, it hand-assembled WASM - this is like writing byte code without a C++ compiler. I asked for a couple of speed-related adjustments (in its first version it asked the user to hold it steady, which is not necessary), and at my request it accomodated bar codes at different curvatures (one that I had wouldn't scan), and minutes after starting, we were done. This is better than the state of the art libraries, which you can try if you don't believe me. I'm an AI alreadyist - superhuman AI is already here.
There's a lot more to being human than being good at writing computer code. Seeing as how AI is already better than you at coding, you might want to try to leverage some of your other aspects that AI isn't so good at.

Arguing something is superhuman when the first thing you tried failed is a pretty wild take.
Because those libraries were human-written and didn't work that well.
