Everyone seems to use the words differently but in general sentience is accepted as the ability to feel and respond to one’s environment. That implies a thing which is able to feel/be aware often synonymous with consciousness although some people say consciousness is sentience + imagination etc.
I mean it as there being a thing which feels like something to be.
If you mean it otherwise could you please define it? Or if you’re happy to proceed with that definition of consciousness and sentience (which requires consciousness as defined) could you proceed with answering my questions?
