TRVA123:
I went archive diving to find some more "in world" information about the nature of Questionable Content AI,
One where Hanners explains to Winslow where the first AI came from:

Well, duh, because that would mean that people aren't a special creation and therefore have no divinely appointed right to do whatever the hell they want to everything else. And since every known* god is a creation of humans, that would never happen.

I always had trouble with the idea of divine intervention. If she* did a proper job in the first place, there wouldn't be a point in it. If she has to correct her work now and again, this would suggest lack of skill or information, which violates the whole idea of god.
