Corporations are legal persons, which is a legal designation and a sort of fiction. Humans are natural persons, which is both a legal reality and an actual reality. If someone says "I'm a person, corporations aren't" they're definitely talking about natural personhood, in which case they're completely correct.
"Humans and corporations are both persons" is kind of facile- corporations don't have quite the same set of rights that humans do.
