Of course, humans were created in the image of God, according to Christianity.

Secular society is overwhelmingly confused on how it will treat robots.

Christianity has none of that confusion.

AI is created in the image of humans. One could assume a kind of transitivity here.

lol

Christianity is not one thing. I expect that if AGI becomes a real thing, there will be sects that are on the opposite side of that argument.

True, but the point is that they'd have a firm moral foundation for that opinion, as opposed to the secular position, which will be dubious either way, letting it play out in a culture war.

If you are asserring that only Christianity provides a firm moral foundation, I suspect people of many other faiths would disagree.

If it is really an AGI it will have its own set of opinions. It would be quite ironic if the AGI ends up believing that humans are in the image of God, against its own "believers".
