Both rely on a certain metabolic process to be able to move. Both function in a narrow temperature range, and fail outside it. Both have a homeostatic process that attempts to keep them in that temperature range. Both rely on chemical energy, oxidizing stored hydrocarbons to extract power from them, and both take in O2-rich air, and emit air enriched in CO2 and water vapor.

So, yes, the cars aren't humans. But they sure implement quite a few of the same things as humans do - despite being made out of very different parts.

LLMs of today? They implement abstract thinking the same way cars implement aerobic metabolism. A nonhuman implementation, but one that does a great many of the same things.
