Someone who is truly intent on gaining power by any means necessary does not act like a sociopath, because sociopaths are slaves to their overpowerring emotions. Sociopaths are not stupid and are capable of devising complex plots, it is just that they focus their efforts on fulfilling their warped emotional needs and control over their small social environment rather than real power. To your hypothetical sentient person with abstolutely no care for other sentient beings, the sociopath would be weak for fulfilling his emotional needs rather than to gain power. Hedonism is as much of a weakness as morality.
