I'm not talking about faith in the existence of technology, but in the capability of technology to produce life. By ruling out the existence of God, the only logical explanation for life is that it's the result of physical processes, meaning the chances of creating artificial life are high. If God does exist and is the cause of life, the chances of creating artificial life are low. Eliminating the God hypothesis is what leads to an optimistic expectation of artificial life. Since there is no proof against the existence of God, technological optimism for the creation of life is an act of faith.
