Imagine someone records you answering lots of interesting questions, stating that you're conscious, solving a couple problems, saying that you don't want to die

Imagine someone records you answering lots of interesting questions, stating that you're conscious, solving a couple problems, saying that you don't want to die, etc... Is the recording a sentient being? I think a similar thing is going on here. While consciousness is not clearly understood, it's definitely much more complicated than something just "claiming" to be alive.
