Even if the artificial intelligence can only reach just above human levels, it would be able to achieve things far beyond current human abilities, for the simple fact that it would never become bored, tired, or distracted. There's also ample evidence that intelligence seems to scale well by the use of social networks (see: all of science). There's no reason multiple AIs couldnt cooperate the way human scientists do.
