You actually ARE a tech person.. you just were not at the crossroads that would have necessitated you learn this new language.

The quest for AI is something the Godless endeavor after: they have no God in themselves, and are hungry for it in a ‘Contact’ kinda way. They need Universal Validation, looking for a maybe less strict God through Science.

That makes sense.

They also want a biddable god, a Controller they control who does not exact the same debt Satan does.

AI is just sophisticated management. It’s a way to leverage predictive data over others. It’s not going to pursue objectives to satisfy its wants and desires.

Artificial or human created sentience, now that will will be a whole different ball game. There will be an enormous responsibility there that needs to treated with extreme respect and caution. If it arises from the complexity of something we’ve created it’s going to have to be accepted that God has considered it worthy of a soul in the form of his breath and that it is worthy of equal standing.

Something like that could be a test of us also, one that I could see many easily failing. A million questions. I think actual sentience will pretty much destroy any “implacable calculating machine” aspect expected from the AI aspects that it could arise from. Sentience will immediately be subject to all the fallibility inherent in the human condition and us being human we’ll probably be inclined to be douchebags to it...
