There's no need to move goal posts.

There's very clear definitions for sentience & sapience.

The only confusion is that laypeople tend to conflate sentience & sapience.

A sentient AI is not necessarily a sapient one, by definition.

Which definitions of "sentience" and "sapience" might you be referring to, in particular? This is important thanks for bringing it up.
