The will not last as long as the pyramids, stone is a very good building material, metals which we use is very reactive and won't last long without maintenance. If humans went extinct the first thing to go will be the metal buildings, the pyramids will last way longer.

Those were built to last.

Current buildings are built to be maintained and thereby turn even moar profits after construction.
