I think it requires intelligence plus the dexterity to make and use tools.

Early humans used fire and hunting to increase the calories in their diets that allowed their brains to grow bigger, making even better tools.

Dolphins, corvids, dogs, etc are not dextrous enough. Octopus don't live long enough and are not social creatures so they can't hand down knowledge.
