Absolutely. There's nothing anti-Christian, un-Christian, blasphemous, or God-denying about artificial intelligence.
Technology has its pros and cons, just like everything else. The same Internet that is such a gift to the world is also responsible for the depraving proliferation of pornography, child pornography, supremacism, Nazism, etc. It has also been the mechanism for tremendous theft from people. But it's not technology itself that is bad, but how people choose to use it.
In the same way, genetic manipulation can be a wonderful medical gift to many people, but the dark side of it makes us all shudder.
AI can also be (is presently being) such a gift to the world, but its potential for abuse is also great. It's in the hearts of people (and the actions that arise from their hearts) that glorifies or denigrates God. The problem isn't with technology but instead with humanity.
