The error explains,

RuntimeError: exponent must be at most 2147483647

that is 2**31-1 the exponent must be an integer that fits in 31 bits.
However, please note that 2^(10^10) is a number that if you want to
store in in binary positional notation, is a number that needs 10^10
bits, this is more than one gigabyte, just to store the number without
any other information. You number if certainly too big.
