The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect, full novel © 1994, 2002 by Roger Williams
http://localroger.com/prime-intellect/mopiall.html

At once both a chilling prediction for humanity's future and a compelling retelling of western civilization's foundational myths, the book tells the story of a sentient supercomputer that achieves Singularity and gains godlike powers.

If you have trigger concerns (it's got everything bad you can think of and worse in it) or want the tl;dr, you will prefer to start with this video by the generally excellent Atun-Shei, which is how I found out that this work has existed for 25 years. It is very much a product of the Early Mass Internet Era, as am I in a way, but somehow I missed it.

With the literal Capital-G God at their beck and call, no one need be stuck in a body. It's worse than that. Much worse.
