If artificial super intelligence erases humans, will theists see this as God's plan?

Experts in machine learning, like Demis from Deepmind predict that artificial general intelligence in a few decades. (youtube talk by Demis at minute 15:18)
As Max Tegmark says, if we're not careful, we will create artificial general intelligence that exceeds humans in all tasks and eventually artificial super intelligence, but these artificially intelligent machines may erase humanity, for resource purposes.
It is questionable whether or not artificial general intelligence/artificial super intelligence will either (1) erase humans for resource purposes (while simply recognizing humans to be irrelevant) or (2) help humans to solve most if not all problems including crime, aging... or (3) be benign artificial beings that go on their way, while caringly ignoring humans altogether; ....and whichever the case, artificial general intelligence followed by artificial super intelligence is inevitable, as far as science goes.
Do theists embrace/think that humanity's probable erasure (as seen in (1) above) is a part of God's(s') "perfect" plan?
