It's kind of fascinatingly serendipitous in the sense that computers/AI are super quick at performing the tasks that we humans find extremely taxing (complex mathematical computation, visual simulation) while struggling with tasks that comes naturally to us humans (gripping objects, running with two feet--as you described) owing to evolution.
I wonder how much of that is because of constituent 'building block' materials that make up the basic structure of homo sapiens and computers -- carbon and silicon, respectively.
