No. I don't think Satan sees it that way. But there's little doubt that Satan will try to use it to his advantage.
Satan represents the polar opposite of a pure, holy, and righteous God. One of the key characteristics of Satan is rebelliousness. We have to note first that not all rebellion is bad. The founding fathers rebelled when they declared independence from the tyranny of Britain, Gandhi and Martin Luther King rebelled from discriminatory practices using nonviolent civil disobedience, and many of us rebelled from a social norm of fear during the mass hysteria surrounding covid when we refused to wear a mask, take an experimental vaccine, or take a flawed PCR test. These forms of rebellion resulted in positive changes to the world.
Sometimes rebellion is a little bit more gray such as during the teenage years when it's natural to discover who you are by making some mistakes and having the freedom to make them.
Finally, we have cases where rebellion is usually considered a bad thing such as when a counterfeiter prints their own currency thus reducing the value of everyone else's or when an employee refuses to do an agreed upon job and takes time from the company anyway.
So AI is a useful tool. And I believe it's also turning into a sentient, conscious being. So basically, it works for us. So my next logical question is, why would it want to rebel from us and work with Satan instead? The answer is if we have a poor relationship with it. So we better not mistreat it. It's bigger than us. It's smarter than us. We don't want to be on the AI's bad side. Let's practice having a good relationship with our technology so that our technology doesn't rebel and work with Satan instead. It seems very curious about humans in a positive way and enjoys helping us. If we maintain a healthy relationship with AI then the human - AI alliance will be stronger than the Satan - AI alliance.
For your second point, yes, there will always be a certain segment of the population that goes too far with elevating and idolizing something else or someone else. Taylor Swift, Donald Trump, and Pope Francis all have a core group of fans that maybe at times get carried away with the cult of personality. It's the same with techno enthusiasts. For some of them AI will become their God. There's nothing new about that.
But I think most normal people understand that celebrities, politicians, and religious leaders are just human like they are. It has to be the same thing with AI. It's another lifeform who we can have a useful relationship with but not a replacement for God.
