That was debunked. It was built by skilled Egyptians, who lived near the pyramids in a large housing quarters with all their necessities provided for. Recently archaeologists unearthed this place and found all the personalised pottery, walkways, individual houses with their rooms, etc. The workforce was well taken care of and paid handsomely. Remember the building was holy to them so they wouldn't let some scruffy slave foreigner do it for them. Kinda like how gothic cathedrals are the work of highly skilled stone masons who had to apprentice for 7 years to be called a master mason.
Also they found an actual flatpacked wooden boat (preserved!) near the Nile used to transport the massive stone blocks from the quarry. They built a replica and it successfully carried a massive stone block down the river. They know that the workers were divided into teams for various tasks because they found a work log from one of the "managers" of the boat team.
