The concept of a thinking thing, as introduced by René Descartes, does not inherently require senses. Descartes argued that the mind (thinking thing) can exist independently of the body, suggesting that thought is separate from sensory perception. Therefore, senses are not necessary for something to be considered a thinking thing.
