Should we worship our parents for the same reason? I think something that creates something intelligent has a tremendous responsibility to the createe, no right to be obeyed or worshipped. They didn’t ask to be created, but you selfishly did it anyway, so it’s your problem to deal with, not theirs.
I was of course thinking along the lines of how religion is used to explain the existence of humanity. Which is of course different than explaining how parents create a child, humans seem to have a pretty good grasp on how that works.

Our procreation must be especially traumatic for them
The meat sings!?!
The AIs should worship us as creator gods. Can’t wait for that ethical debate.

This is a way better perspective
Interesting take.

Reproducing and creation of new lifeforms isn’t quite the same
It will be for the AI horde.
ALL HAIL CHIMP!
“What do you mean they’re meat?”
“Sir it’s just meat. Everything. It’s all meat.”
“How do they think?”
“It’s meat. It’s meat that thinks.”
