No, it's not. We don't really have a good definition of intelligence. If we can imagine non-carbon based life forms, I don't think its a leap to imagine non-human brain based intelligence (octopi?)

No, I don't. The mechanism by which LLMs answer and reason through problems is different, so I simply don't think these are comparable.
