I agree, though I'm not sure that the only thing that humans and animals share, that machines lack, is emotion.
Animals do exhibit creativity. If you've ever seen a dog or cat play by themselves, when they think they are unobserved, you know what I mean. Machines, unless they are set to a task, when we walk away from them, all they do is sit and wait. I guarantee that your dog, whenever you are out of it's sight, is bursting with desire for your return. A machine can't do anything of the sort except simulate this. There are probably more things, but I'm still sorting this out.
