What do you do with your newfound ability, if anything at all?

Steal money through any means from people I don't like. (Steve Jobs's ex-wife, that Norwegian vegan cretin, Soros etc) Use said resources to develop useful and aligned 200 AI agents, probably based on my own personality so it'd feel less wrong.

Using said agents, automate online and irl bullying of people engaging in scams, self-dealing, corruption and so on. So, a planet-wide campaign against corruption that's not constructive (e.g. bypassing bad legislation etc). With enough AI agents, it'd be easy to know this.

Destroy rap music in its entirety. Worms on every digital device that brick it if someone tries playing rap music. Super powerful memes making it look really cringe. End to renewables subsidies. End to demand subsidization.

Wage warfare against people developing superhuman AIs. Promote bio-singularity or try to find out whether you can run human consciousness on a machine substrate and it's the same thing as doing it on a biological, if that, push that. I'm assuming the 400 IQ is biological in nature, so, should be pretty easy to reverse-engineer somewhat.

Unless there's a more convenient way of seeing something novel like say, paratime- build a bunch of von-neumann starships and go see the universe, either in person using uploads or by cloning in case biological agelessness is unattainable.

Probably clone myself and also set up a Venus terraforming program using atmosphere re-engineering and comet-redirection.

Yes, I've read a lot of pointless SF, how can you tell?
