It's an AI. Why wouldn't it use the repetitive motion of drawing a line infinitely to use it to improve itself?

It theoretically has endless patience. The good news is that it will never take over because it tried to draw a straight line until the end of time.

Well, the entity in the comic is like an actual, sentient AI rather than what we have now, given that it expresses and acts on a desire (in this case, wanting to be human). We're probably several breakthroughs away from actually building a sentient AI.
