| This article examines grounds for attributing conscience to artificial intelligence. It distinguishes norm-sensitive performance from conscience understood as an evaluative self-relation through which an agent takes moral demands to bear on its own conduct, commitments, and way of living. Drawing on Kantian and existential analyses, it defends a reconstruction of conscience centered on normative appropriation, motivational concern, and reflexive ownership over time. The neurophilosophical argument separates conceptual premises from empirical evidence. Research on self-related cognition and prefrontal lesions constrains explanations of relevant human capacities, but neither identifies a neural center of conscience nor establishes that biological implementation is necessary. These findings motivate an evidential requirement: attributing conscience requires an account of how norm recognition, valuation, and self-assessment are integrated, rather than an inference from moral language or acceptable outputs alone. A functionalist objection is acknowledged: an artificial system realizing the relevant causal organization could qualify as conscientious under the proposed account. The article therefore argues for a limit on presently warranted attribution, not an impossibility theorem about artificial conscience. A hypothetical triage case and proposed assessment dimensions clarify this limit. Conscience, moral responsibility, and institutional accountability are distinguished to avoid deriving governance conclusions from an unproven claim about machine subjectivity. | ||
