Is your argument, essentially, that you think a machine intelligence can create a mathematics humans cannot understand, even in principle?

"mathematics" may be a wrong word for it. I totally think that a transhuman can create concepts and ideas which a mere human cannot understand even when patiently explained. I am quite surprised that other people here don't find it an obvious default.

My impression was the question was not if it'd have those concepts, since as you say thats obvious, but if they'd be referenced necessarily by the utility function.
