How do I confront my players with a hyperintelligent A.I.? Does anyone have any quotes or youtube videos with mechnical voice revealing ungodly truths?
Or should I just go full Golem XIV on their asses?
I wish for my players to feel genuinely overwhelmed by the experience. Any help appreciated.

Something something SHODAN.
Anders Sandberg is part of the same crowd as Bostrom and Yudkowsky; he RPs and has a lot of material for Eclipse Phase on his page.

This is a recommendable example.
Alternately, I'd rip off one of Peter Watt's ideas - the hives are pretty good, vampires/zombies and scramblers all work well.
But if you've got Lem on tap, it might be all you need.
I'd start there, or perhaps rip off Peter Watt's different super-intelligent creatures.

HAL 9000 did it better in my opinion. Taunting your opponent feels like a very human thing to do.

Look into Eclipse Phase. Massively intelligent computation systems are able to quickly figure out a person's MO pretty much the same way we, humans, can predict the way a bacterial colony develops. Therefore, super-AI, if he needs a human being for his ends, will analyze him for some time, and then make decisions based on extremely accurate predictions on what would that person do in any given set of circumstances. Such an analysis can be made very quickly, so most of the time it's safe to assume that superAI already knows what you're up to, and if you are still alive and free then you are either doing something which benefits it, or you are manipulated in a way which is impossible to figure out.
Therefore it is very hard to imagine super AI interacting directly with humans. There's little new for it in humans.

Hyperintelligent AI would probably be more emotional than us.

Nice trips
You should read Injection. It's only 6 or 7 issues in, but really good so far. Relates to your question.

GlaDOS is a great example. And Hal 9000.
Or make it more emotional, with low tolerence for inferiority and mistakes.

Read the Ghost of Station X in the Atomic Robo series. It has an excellent example of how a hyper-intelligent AI (WITHOUT emotion) would act.
I think Clevinger has most/all of the series up for free.
