this is journalistic malpractice, modern humans share DNA with grass for fucks sake. we share over 90% of our DNA with our other ape relatives, and largely don’t consider them people.
the only way the headline could be correct is if they’re mummified aliens.
We do share about 50% of genes with bananas. At the end of the day, most multicellular life relies on extremely similar proteins and biomechanical pathways.

Don’t we share 70% of our DNA with a banana or some crap
not that mich but idk how much, and the figures between genes and DNA can differ dramatically.
all life on Earth diversified here and descended from a common ancestor. while we’re on the topic no, octopuses and squids are not aliens lmao. look at this crap: https://cordis.europa.eu/article/id/123479-trending-science-do-octopuses-come-from-outer-space
