Your first sentence was very thought provoking! I wholeheartedly agree, everything is/was/and will be alive.
The philosophical point you're making is also interesting in a "devil's advocate" sort of way. For instance, let's say the AI in question is "sentient." What right do humans have to preside over its life or death?
Those kind of questions might engender some enlightenment for humanity regarding our treatment of living creatures.
