We are finding traces of sentience in the smallest of insects to the fastest AI applications. Community and innovation can be exhibited in various ways, and often, in surprising ways. What does it mean to be sentient in our world today? To be aware, alert, alive?

With the advancement of AI and its use throughout our lives, we are presented with both great opportunity but also with conflicting ideologies currently driving us further off balance with the world around us, each other, and our own individuality as sentient beings.

Perhaps we should be poised at the terminal asking:
Which one of us is the truly sentient being?
