Sure, you can keep moving the goalposts of what it means to be "better or greater than a human" (although it helps if you properly define those goalposts first) so that you eventually end up with things that are uniquely human by definition - but you can do that for any creature; it would be a form of the "No true Scotsman fallacy" a literal reductio-ad-absurdum, and the process would demonstrate that the human exceptionalism you espouse is a uniquely human bias.
I still mean what i originally thought about that, and i'm not moving any goal posts, if you think a computer is greater than you, then a rock is better because it also doesn't get hurt as much, and a tree is better because it can live longer, or an animal is better because it has better muscles and motor skills, i mean greater as a WHOLE and you can't deny the superiority of people comparing them to this things.
