Depends on the level of the AI. If it's past the point of literal godhood and continues to improve itself every second, the aliens would quickly have their technology surpassed.

Making supersoldiers is a great idea, but they need limits. Super strong, fast and durable BUT make them as dumb and loyal as puppies. Khan from Star Trek: Wrath of Khan was terrifying because he was also smarter than any human. Make them similar to Ogryns from Warhammer 40k and all will be well.

For anyone who likes this particular episode and old weird fiction similar to H.P. Lovecraft. Might I suggest William Hope Hodgson's The Night Lands and The House on the Borderlands. Particularly the later as it involves vast gulfs of time travel.

I absolutely love this podcast. I love the theoretical sci fi ideas that comes up and how they can happen practically. 10/10!
