With genetic engineering immortality is within our grasp. Would an eternal monarch be better than mortal monarch who die and are replaced? It could be argued that changing rulers leads to instability.

What a peculiar thought.
As much as I would desire this, death is a natural solution to man… Death allows the monarch to give power to the youth. Monarchy relies on death and this flow of generations, from old to young. An eternal monarchy is no less still ideal, but there will be problems. If it doesn't resolve aging, the Crown will have to be given to an heir still to represent the young as time passes.

An eternal monarch would be cool. Though, if the theory of evolution is in fact true, then we’d end up with a constant ruler, but an evolving folk, meaning as humans evolve, the ruler will not.

The idea isn't bad, but there'd have to be quite an amount of research to prove that the brain doesn't get the normal effects of aging (think dementia for example) before I'd actually trust it to work.

How about an artificial AI monarch that's programmed to be the ideal ruler of humanity?

They have something like that, and it's called a "Constitution". Our prescription is a crown to stand for fundamental justice and rights between a people, also known as sovereignty, because a crown stands on a head. Only a person can intimately rule and this is the best you can really wish for… the absolute ruler… the leviathan… mortal god… above law and law-maker… the sovereign.

The Constitution isn't an AI. It's a piece of animal skin. There's a difference between basing a government on a fashionable demotic political ideology and building a perfect monarch bereft of human foibles or mortality.

It sounds like the logical conclusion of monarchy to me. The prime advantage of a monarch over other forms of rule is that a monarch has lower time preference, and is more willing to forego gaining wealth now in favor of getting even more wealth in the future. Removing mortality from the equation will bring time preference asymptotically close to zero, allowing the monarch to think on a scale of decades or even centuries.
