Wouldn't base economics dictate that, not ASI? A state can have knowledge of how to do things, how things work, hypothetical implementations, etc. However, if a state lacks the resources, skill, or desire to actually confirm and implement those hypothetical technologies, would they just stagnate? There might be a bottleneck there?
There's a lot of things that we know how to fix, but cannot. It's with thinking through why that is, and whether it's any different for a 'superintelligence.'

Resources will surely impact near-term possibilities.
The space of possibilities is probably large enough that, given time, ASI can get around most limitations if it has the desire/goal to implement them.
Well, that's wishful thinking at best...

This assumes that humanity would remain in control after ASI emerges. We might not.
