Sugar confirmed they're solar powered robots so....
I guess they're an inteligence that exists in the gem itself and when put in a gem maker it takes some kind of form by using the gem as core.
They're solar powered in the sense they take energy from the stars or maybe when put in the gem maker their gems become a solar-like battery? I don't know.
I used to think the real gems were all an alien species that was spread in all the universe and the Diamonds wanted to collect all of them for their army and our earth gems were just a fake version of the real gems.
But as we saw in the show all the gems can be made from every kind of gems and it doesn't need anything else that a gem maker.
