At the micros most of players are only 4-betting heavy values, so I don't believe it is ever wrong to be folding AK either preflop (when the price of the 4-bet gets too high) or even postflop, when we have any piece of equity to be fighting for.
We do assume that AK is just another hand, another combo and we must play it without any regards or feelings.
