RealDigits[Im[z /. FindRoot[(1 + z)^I == z, {z, 0}, WorkingPrecision -> 120]]][[1]] (* Amiram Eldar, May 26 2023 *)
PROG
(PARI) \\ f(x) computes (x+(x+...)^i)^i, provided that it converges:
f(x)={my(z=1.0, zlast=0.0, eps=10.0^(1-default(realprecision))); while(abs(z-zlast)>eps, zlast=z; z=(x+z)^I); return(z)}
\\ To compute this constant, use:
z0 = f(1); imag(z0)
