What makes something alive? If you look at the basic of basic components on anything that we consider alive, they are just a combination of elements. Elements by themselves are essential dead. They don't do anything. So, if life composed of inanimate objects and we consider that alive, what is the definition of life? Conscienceness? Intake of energy? Self Preservation? If we were to create a very advanced form of AI and put into a mechanical body, would that be considered life? It needs an intake of energy to function, its AI allows it to have a conscience, self preservartion, possibly even feel. So, wouldn't that machine be considered alive? And if it is considered life, it would be an ultimately different lifeform compared to what we currently have. So, if we created said lifeform.. would we be gods to them?
