In the next 50 or 100 years, an AI might know more than the entire population of the planet put together. At that point, there are serious questions to ask about whether this AI — which could design and program additional AI programs all on its own, read data from an almost infinite number of data sources, and control almost every connected device on the planet — will somehow rise in status to become more like a god, something that can write its own bible and draw humans to worship it."

I am not aware of anything man made that is anything more than a tool. The idea that it will evolve to where we are serving the tool instead of the other way around is pure speculation without any example to point to.
I think what is far more likely, at least in the short term, is that we will become completely dependent on the machines. Since the Agricultural revolution jobs have become so specialized that people can not survive apart from modern society. We are already dependent on so many different functions. With AI it will become all encompassing and very much invisible. In other words the AI will identify our patterns and do things for us that we soon forget how to even do. We saw this with slavery. The owners eventually cannot do anything and are completely dependent on the slaves.
