Humans not only consider themselves to be sentient, but also sapient. These two terms are related but distinct:
 
Sentience, as discussed earlier, refers to the ability to perceive and experience feelings or sensations. All animals with a nervous system have some level of sentience. For example, a dog can feel pain and pleasure, fear and joy.
 
===Sapience===
Sapience, apart from sentience, is often defined as wisdom, or the ability of an organism or entity to act with judgment. It's associated with higher cognitive functions such as reasoning, problem-solving, self-awareness, knowledge accumulation, and the ability to understand and predict the consequences of actions.

While sentience is about feeling, sapience is about thinking. In other words, humans consider themselves to not only be capable of experiencing the world (sentience) but also understanding and making complex decisions within it (sapience).
