Patterns in gender of AIs that "must be destroyed"

[Wishbone]

Using "it" would indicate denial that Warforged are persons - which would set up the conflict for the session with one word.

I was thinking of specifically respectful ways to address another PC, but that's a possibility as well if everyone at the table consents.

I really don't see why an AI should be "male" or "female".

That goes double for rogue AIs that don't like humans and/or don't like life in general.

That was one thing that always bothered me about the Lord of Blades in Eberron.

Its more a issue of voice - you probably cound do a gender neutral mechanical voice, but as soon as a voice is given a ‘human quality’ then I suspect human ears will ascribe a gender

That goes double these days than in the 90's when it was just potentially treading into some hate speech adjacent areas depending on context & content going with it. Imagine that sorta thing going down at the table with a trans player (the warforged PC player or not).
