The implementation of artificial intelligence morality is one of the most important themes discussed in the field of A.I. While many discussions focus on finding the right ethical system to implement, it is also important to address an important dilemma that comes with this possible innovation. Besides finding the right ethical system for A.I, we must also be aware of the conditions required to make possible the implementation of such a system. And these are not hardware requirements, but specific traits through which A.I. become more akin to humans. In this article, I will discuss what features do a.i. need to have in order to work with abstract ideas such as morality. To do this, I will first write a definition of human nature, based on past definitions written by various philosophers. And starting from this definition, I will highlight the most fundamental and essential human traits such as thinking and the nature of human rationality, communication, and the relationship between mind and body. After, I will compare these traits with a.i. to find out how close or far is the technology of achieving moral thinking. In order to accomplish these, I will use secondary sources of literature such as books and articles.
