Are synths in Fallout 4 sentient?

From firsthand experience, I'd argue that synths are absolutely sentient. You run into characters like Nick Valentine, who's not just a synth but a complex individual with his own personality, moral compass, and history. He's more human than some of the actual humans you meet in the game. Bethesda did a great job blurring the lines between human and machine, making you question what being sentient really means.

Totally! Synths in Fallout 4 show all the signs of sentience. They've got memories, emotions, and even their own desires and fears. It's a major part of the game's storyline, actually. How NPCs and the player react to synths really digs into those heavy questions about what it means to be 'alive'.

Nah, they're just fancy robots. Sure, they seem human-like, but at the end of the day, they're programmed by humans. Sentience? More like advanced AI.
