Yes, and it is also related with consciousness. In order to be intelligent, it needs to be embodied, so it can sense and act in the world. More ideas related with consciousness apply here.
Though many people confused embodied with 'robot', as in an AI would be packed in a unit walking around. I personally see it the opposite way. An AI could have a 1000 bodies all gathering data in the world. Or a million cameras connected to it. Or a set of sensors that spans the globe.
In this since a digital entity could have far more embodiment and connectivity then us humans could ever have.
Waiting for the first research paper with the term 'globally conscious' at this point.
