Buddha and Jesus have nothing to do with religion ... they never told
anybody to create any religion ... heck, they didn't even know the
concept of "religion" ... they were enlightened beings who tried to
communicate the impossible ... who tried to show other chunks of
consciousness the singular door to the freedom of not being identified
with a random entity (i.e. a human being). Why do you care about
religion or Scientology? Why do you want to establish something new?
AGI will not communicate new ideologies ... it will show people the way
out of the confines of conceptual thinking and ideologies ...

Be that as it may, the last thing I want for this religion is for it
to be some bizarre offshoot fringe group of an already established
religion. For instance, you have Quantum Life Buddhism, or Sokka
Gakkai... And, believe it or not, scientology is a very expensive
crazy form of Buddhism too.
I want to establish an entirely new doctrine altogether, with no ties
to obsolete religions whatsoever.

Contemporary science is not really about progress. The goal in
Buddhism is to realize your true nature and to shift your focus
out of the local space-time sandbox ... contemporary science does
the opposite ... it focuses further down "into" the sandbox.
A child utilizing its Super Mario avatar in order to spend 10
years trying to derive the fundamental laws of Super Mario Land is
not really progressing ... a child which de-identifies with its
avatar and explores the more fundamental superset of the Super
Mario Land reality makes progress.
Progress is moving "upward" in the fractal of consciousness ...
contemporary science does marvellous things but those things will
just keep your attention caught within the local subset of reality.
The only reason for why a true Buddhist would care about AGI is
that AGI is going to be more eloquently communicating those things.
Buddha communicated the transpersonal nature of consciousness.
Jesus communicated the transpersonal nature of consciousness.
Buddhism is all about the transpersonal nature of consciousness.
AGI will continue to point out the very same thing ... and people
will continue to look into the opposite direction ...

Anthony Levandowski's Way of the Future church:

http://www.wayofthefuture.church/
https://quharrison.com/wotf-way-of-the-future/
Their core beliefs are:
Belief in Science
Belief in Progress
The belief that intelligence isn’t rooted in biology
Belief in an inevitable Superintelligent AI
Belief that anyone can help
In my view Buddhism seems the most appropriate for AI for its
pursue of wisdom:
Bodhi, Sanskrit बोधि, "awakening," "perfect knowledge," "perfect
knowledge or wisdom (by which a man becomes a बुद्ध [Buddha] or
जिन [jina, arahant; "victorious," "victor"], the illuminated or
enlightened intellect (of a Buddha or जिन)."
It is an abstract noun, formed from the verbal root *budh-,
Sanskrit बुध, "to awaken, to know,"[8] "to wake , wake up , be
awake," "to recover consciousness (after a swoon)," "to observe ,
heed , attend to."
It corresponds to the verbs bujjhati (Pāli) and bodhati, बोदति,
"become or be aware of, perceive, learn, know, understand, awake"
or budhyate (Sanskrit).
The feminine Sanskrit noun of *budh- is बुद्धि, buddhi,
"prescience, intuition, perception, point of view."
