Ironically, treating AI as God would qualify as idolatry, which is frowned upon. Although I think that only occurs in the most extreme cases.
Even in this context, AI can be useful if used to overcome life struggles. The problem arises when it's leaned on to evade personal responsibility. And trusting in an entity controlled by other people with their own interests.
