The very nature of being an AI usually means that the member is more committed than the average member. Collegiate members have this handy thing available to them called recruitment, last I checked there was no recruitment in that sense for AI's, instead the commitment to search out the organization and the membership was needed.
An AI also has a definate advantage when it comes to advising. They are not going to get caught up in the "that's not the way we did it in college" junk. THey don't have that experience and so can bring fresh new eyes to the table.
Now if the OP doesn't want an AI, that's fine but it is unfair to say no AI can be a good advisor.

Exactly.
Have you ever thought about being an advisor???
Oh that's right, you are.
