When using the parent-child relationship as an instance of CEV, it is. The child takes the position of the AI.
You've completely lost me. Do you mean, this AI is our child? Do you mean that the way we will have children in a more conventional sense will be an instance of CEV?
If the former, I don't see a moral problem. A singleton doesn't get to be a person, even if it contains multitudes (much as the USA does not to get to be a person, though I would hope a singleton would function better).
If the latter... words fail me, at least for the moment, and I will wait for your confirmation before trying again.
