In religious communities we would call such an attitude scrupulosity. It refers to a sort of religious OCD, a paralyzing fixation on the rules and a demand for unrealistic standards of perfection.

According to Christian teaching, such an attitude comes from a lack of faith. A lack of belief that God is ultimately in control, and an understanding that for all the imperfections and flaws that we as humans inevitably bring to the table, god can still work through those imperfections.

I'm not sure there's an existing "Christian teaching" on "should I use an AI chatbot that's highly likely to make shit up as a proselytizing tool"?

Humans are also "highly likely to make shit up". Should everybody stop making and consuming any religious works other than the "original bible"?

That is indeed a pretty common doctrine - that the Bible is the only source that can be trusted - for that very reason.

you can just google scrupulosity or scrupulouness and find writing on it by various apologetics.

I get the concept. I don't find it compelling as an argument here.

This is a common mistake by apologetics.
