So? It's still 'playing God'.
What about selectively breeding animals? I could argue that animals and plants are sentient. I could argue that all life is sentient.

As far as I can see, all living things fit that definition. Good AI seem fits that definition too.

I can honsestly say that it
was 'playing God'.
