A superhuman AGI could accumulate tremendous financial resources; to do so most effectively it would need access to as many feeds and exchanges as possible, so some kind of shell company would buy those for it.

Any information about a method narrows the hypothesis space, so I'm not sure this is possible. But discussion with academics,...
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
