    Whose talking about a "disembodied brain"? What do you mean by "disembodied"?
    An SI is embodied with a computational matrix and may have many extensions in
    the physical world in the way of devices it controls. Is the question why
    the SI would want to? There are reasons it might form a subgoal of extending
    its power. This might look a bit like "taking over the world" if carried too
    far. So, was that the question?
