Jesus-level technology consisted of carpenter tools, like a hammer, wood saw, nails, a wood chisel, wood carving knives, sanding cloths and wood stain.

I'm always skeptical when comments get a lot of heat. Usually when I see the source article link to the actual speech I can listen/watch for myself.
A LOT of these articles aren't giving links to the actual comment so here's the short section of the speech I found, with the follow up statement just afterwards:
He actually clarifies "miracles of science" in the very next comment. We can't just take his one sentence and spin it. That is exactly where the "fine people on both sides" Trump mis-quote comes from.
Elon specifically points out he was using it to refer to miracles of science. We all know Jesus is known for miracles, so to use that as a reference, I don't see that as a negative here.
His comment infers he believes Jesus performed miracles and the clarification that the tech is a miracle of science. There's a differentiation there I think is important.
The entire speech is very eye opening as a whole where AI safety comes up. Personal robots, self driving cars, and the host brings up terminator. Notice here Elon basically says he hopes not. but admits well we hope not.
I'd be more concerned with that comment versus references to Jesus. Perhaps the goal here is to focus on the Jesus comment in the speech and not the dangers of AI that are being baked into the foundation of the sciences.
If the tech lets us see, someone can hack it and alter what we see (like Ghost in the shell)
If a tech lets us walk, then can police deactivate it to stop a suspect from fleeing?
With self driving cars, surely there will be a police override or some kind of kill switch to disable or take over the vehicle remotely.
If it can enable the blind to see or the deaf to hear, that is arguably "Jesus-level" medical technology.
It amazes me that people can get more concerned over how someone expresses himself, than over what his actions may contribute to the alleviation of human suffering.
I had an old friend come down with Parkinson's Disease, and he did resort to brain implants to control the tremors, without which he would have been helpless to use his limbs. The Parkinson's finally got him, but he had a very long time of beneficial life that he wouldn't have had otherwise.
Just bear in mind that medicine and technology are two of God's gifts that He gave to mankind, for the alleviation of suffering and want. He didn't have to do that. We should be properly grateful.

That doesn't say much for Elon's "brain chips".

...hear HEAR...
...Elon gets a wee bit vociferous at times...
I’m a bit uncomfortable with this technology, but if it is really helping paralyzed and blind people, it’s truly amazing.
I don’t even like to use voice to text. Creepy AF.
Musk is a tard.

Jesus' name should never come out of Musk's mouth...
...except to ask for the gift of God's salvation.
Elon cannot be fully trusted!
Either you are trusted or you are not. There is no degree.
Not for me.
It depends on the topic we are talking about.
Some topics I trust Elon on. Others I don't.

Jesus didn't "manufacture" miracles...
No, for Him they were miracles. For us, they are technology, a gift from God. Does the blind person quibble?
