This is unreasonable. AIs need not be simulations of people, or even like humans at all. Humans are just the first intelligences to evolve, from iteratively improving something that guided locomotion in fish. We are far from optimal. AI technology improves every day and most of it looks nothing like neuroscience, let alone physics simulations.
They don't have to simulate us in order to be intelligent. They would have to simulate us if they wanted to eclipse our intelligence in all respects. I argued that they will be intelligences alongside us. Different. Better in some ways and worse in others.

True. Flawed as any analogy, but cars don't need animal-like legs, wheels are more efficient and they are not well-represented in nature.
Only if roads exist.
Fish and birds don't use propellers or jets.
Well, fish use their tails as propellers.
