Answer
Conscience and the capacity for love imply a self that can be wrong, can suffer, and can choose. AI can simulate care or recommend virtue, but it doesn't have a life at stake. That irreplaceable stake is what makes moral responsibility real.
A life at stake—that's the anchor. Without it, it's performance, not virtue.
