Nope, fraid not. Usually, the AI R'lyeh is killed by some landlubber, because R'lyeh is a magically-dependent nation that is very tricky to play, because Astral magic lacks the directness of other magics.

AIs simply do badly at magic: They don't synergize, they just make seemingly random decisions that are very short-term at best. Thus, any investment of points made into the AI's magic will yield poor returns. Give him lots of scales instead, so he can churn out lots of crud, something he does well.
