minus-squareCeruleanRuin@lemmings.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 年前Is there a legal definition of sentience?
minus-squareHeavybell@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·3 年前Dunno about legal, but I’m pretty sure the scientific bar for sentience is pretty low. You basically just have to have senses (e g. hearing, sight, etc) and react to stimuli to be sentient.
