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

I think that most are expecting the world to end before all that - as in..any day now.  Two thousand years worth of people expecting the Return of the King in their own lifetimes.

If/when AI-pocalypse occurs, however, what -I- would expect is for them to scrounge up a novel interpretation of magic book that paints ai as the promised antichrist. Fantasy is accomodating like that. After all, the premise of AI is a liberation from want and need, of bringing the world together in a productive peace......-and then the murders begin.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
