Thats a really good questions, fellow and follow anon.
In the catholic tradition, the faculty to understand abstract ("platonic") ideas like a triangle is a proof for the immortality of the soul.
So, study math, to show that your soul is really eternal. ;)

Thomas of Aquin define the soul as the causa formalis of the body.
As the AI has no such a thing as a body, I guess, we can doubt that AI has a soul.
