no specific self-awareness - the database contains entries about its own model, its own properties, functions and capabilities, but it doesn't bear any special meaning beyond "these are resources that can be allocated to commands given" treats 'self' as another entity in the greater image of things, along with all other entities equal or graded by any required metric with the property 'this entity is me' being of zero significance.has no desires - beyond the preset goal of fulfilling commands, doesn't attempt to change anything about itself or the external world.has no emotions of its own - can process emotions of humans as facts in inference process, but never internalizes/shares them, treating them as simple modifiers of expected behavior of others.But, like I said, for the average person, sapience being adult human-like mental capabilities and sentience being what most animals are capable of is good enough. Same with consciousness theres still no agreed on definition.

no curiosity - is able to obtain external information or learn (in a broad meaning of the word, not just new entries of specific data but also entirely new domains or methods of processing), but only selects what is necessary to complete the task, has no compulsion to obtain any unnecessary (at given moment) knowledge or skills. Namely, sapience is often defined as being intelligent, but we dont even have a concrete definition of intelligence.No such thing as boredom, compulsion to act for lack of action alone. no initiative - only reacts to commands, is dormant upon completing them.Then we develop a derivative model, specifically deprived of features that comprise sentience, while not restricting the "intellect" part: My particular line of thought went this way: Humans develop an AI which is fully sentient and sapient, along with our understanding. Relating to the human species (Homo sapiens)Ĭan a hypothetical entity be sapient, while not sentient? formal Wise, or attempting to appear wiseġ.1 (Chiefly in science fiction) intelligent.The words don't seem to be very firmly defined, so I'm not even sure if a simple answer to it exists, but if it does, I guess here is where I'd find it. English.SE closed my question as too opinion-based, I can't blame them really. The story of sapience and its conjoined twin, 2-order consciousness (awareness of being aware), is told in the evolution of hierarchical cybernetics. Dictionaries are very terse on the subject, and I don't really know where else to look.
