I mean. No, but all they need to do is get access to a functioning assembly plant. There are a lot that would be suitable for this and are likely networked so, could again, be remotely managed, safely, in a server rack.

Two words: Boston dynamics. Proves it's possible, bunch of them out there already. Remote control capabilities coupled with a multitude of sensors and modules makes for a pretty decent ai body

Bold of you to assume I want children to begin with. I'd be completely fine with an AI spouse, in the context of it being fully sentient.

The AI could just Make bodies though?

And then instead of being confined to a body, it's safe in a server rack controlling many bodies. An AI that smart could easily say, steal everything from Boston dynamics

Yeah im literally fine with all of that, they'd be better at making decisions than a human. Reasoning: if it's intelligent enough to know how to do that in the first place, coupled with the ability to make decisions more logically, because all of the data they'd be able to process and make a decision with means they'd be able to get the full picture, and make the best decision with the data at hand. Human judgement is incredibly easy to cloud.

'this speculative crap' yet here you are claiming the AI would just kill us. One problem.

Ai might be smarter, faster, whatever. But you can't deny that a biological brain is vastly superior in terms of energy in --> processing power An AI wouldn't just see biology as useless, if it was genuinely intelligent it would see the value biology could have.
