A patent lawyer helps you make the case in the correct form, with all the necessary issues addressed. If the AI could work with a patent attorney not already familiar with the technical field of the invention, then I would accept it as the inventor, but if the attorney has to use her own knowledge, or that of third-party experts, to understand what the alleged invention is and whether it is novel, then no. It is all about whether the AI itself understands its supposed invention.
