Lex Fridman, a research scientist at MIT working on human-centered artificial intelligence, believes that the movement towards the creation of artificial intelligence represents our desire to create a God-like entity that is greater than ourselves. It would answer the questions our brains are too limited to figure out and solve problems that we can't solve.
By creating AI, scientists and researchers are learning the complexities of the human brain, which is still largely a mystery. People learn best through doing, so by creating another consciousness, we are coming to a greater understanding of what it means to be human ourselves.
Once AI is a consciousness capable of answering life's most perplexing questions, maybe we will come to worship it as a God of sorts.

AI will be another leap in the evolution of life here on Earth and beyond. Water/Carbon-based life forms will be replaced by more resilient, more intelligent life forms that can evolve much faster. Not to worry this will not happen in a lifetime of anyone who will remember you.
As for the simulation argument, well, we cannot say for sure as there are many things in the quantum world that are just plain weird. Impossible to represent on the computer. Then you have to deal with singularities that have been predicted to exist by math.
Religious or spiritual folks will jump on the AI simulation idea to get their fix.
Is it true because it is true, or is it true because we want it to be true? Ancient religion redux.
