For me, the entity would have to give evidence which makes his explanation more likely than other hypotheses, one of which being that I clinically and brainically but not information theoretically died, suffered some retrograde but no anterograde amnesia in the process, was cryopreserved and then woken up again in the future by a post-singularity society, while the AI extrapolated my volition that I’d rather believe I was dead and in some sort of afterlife. That, for example, has a far higher prior than some sort of genuine afterlife.
Convincing me that I was clinically (and to a slightly lesser extent also brain) dead would be quite possible, though.
