Human distinctiveness and Artificial Intelligence

I pass on some random thoughts occasioned by the previous post. What is distinctive about humans?
-There are millions of humans, there can be only a few LLMs, given the enormous amounts of material and energy required to make them.
-Many humans are required to generate and mirror shared illusions about value,purpose, and meaning that bind together and distinguish different cultures.
-For GPT engines to obtain such a capability would require that they be embodied, self sufficient, energy efficient, replicable, and interactive.... In other words, like current human bodies.
-Mr. Musk's humanoid robot, and the Chinese robot that has beat it to the assembly line, don't even come close.
