Sentient Machines?

.
A senior astronomer has suggested that the good folk looking for signs of extraterrestrial life might alternatively start looking for signs of ‘sentient machines’.

Doesn’t this suggest that he is implying that the good folk looking for these signs needn’t bother looking for the beings that invented these machines?

But, of course, I’m no scientist. What would I know?
