Oh I see. It all depends what kind of imitation we're talking about. Simply imitating chit chat based on databases and agos = not sentience. Imitating thought processes, having an ego and not waiting for user input to act = possibly sentience. I say possibly because all those things can be programmed into an AI so it can imitate them, but in that case it's not "honest" sentience, it's just a very convincing illusion.

Maybe someone should come up with something like the Turing test, but this time to evaluate if something is sentient or not.
