Generally considered un-natural, not all life needs to be organic. Automata contains anything that one could say is designed by hand - be it of an otherworldly hand - and not nature. Dolls, golems, machinery, androids, puppets all included. If it doesn't have a heart and doesn't grow, it's probably an automaton.

Golems are constructs, typically infused with magic. They often have semi human attributes like arms and legs or a head, but rarely resemble humans in any traditional form, a bit like oversized dolls. Golems often serve their creator, though there's the possibility of developing minds of their own.
