The point I was making was that the pre Darwin era saints didn't make a big deal about the age of the earth, whether Gen 1-3 were to be taken literally or allegorically. It didn't have any moral bearing until Darwin presumed his theory, in which the church responded against it, many taking a YEC view. This seems like one of those things in which there is pre-era silence, but it will be more discussed in the years to come, but to claim an absolute that saints haven't said anything about this thus it's wrong is similar to saying pre-darwin saints haven't mentioned anything about AI/Tech/Bitcoin and yet coming to radically black and white conclusions anyways.

I have no qualms with humanity creating a digital "mind" in the same way that I don't think it's moraly wrong for someone to have a prostetic arm or leg. It's different than claiming they will create a soul behind it. It's an efficiency tool within the programmers/prompt engineers parameters and is only as successful as it's material. It is limited to dealing with human input. The fear would be in the size of the gap between mans knowledge and God's private knowledge, however, even our best attempts at AGI or ASI couldn't scratch the surface. A fear that assumes it could match THAT sees God's omniscience as more superficial I think. Now, there will inevitably be people who take everything it says as gospel truth, which obviously falls into deception and sin, but we have that today already with our current models. Broken people will find anything to worship as long as it's not God.
