It's probably because AI's have not needed to operate in environments where they need a self-model.? They are not members of a social community.? Some simpler systems, like Mars Rovers, have limited self-models (where am I, what's my battery charge,...) that they need to perform their functions, but they don't have general intelligence (yet).
