Human versus non-human

I am not assuming or believing that all AI approaches are equal or related to human being. I do not say that consciousness is a requirement or a possible consequence. I am just dropping some questions in other to listen to some discussion about those.

However, I do agree that since I am human, the concept that I use for both consciousness and intelligence are that of a human. By consciousness I mean to be aware that I exist and also (this should not be part of the definition, but it helps) that I can think by myself.

The questions remain:
1) Is it possible to have human-like (or better than human) intelligence in other kind of hardware, a computer for example?
2) Is there a relationship, even some kind of cause and effect relationship between human-like intelligence and consciousness?
3) Very important but extremely hard do formalize. I do not mean simulation of "appearance" of intelligence in any way. I want true intelligence, whatever that means.

Computer Emotions

For the proponents of the theory that computer will be able to mimick humans in every way:
1. (a) computers may pick the various sensory stimuli as we do, but will they be able to "FEEL" it, as we do?
(b) Even though signals traveling from our sense receptors two our brains travel as measurable electrical signals, it is 'the brain' that interprets them as FEELINGS. We FEEL hot, cold, pain etc. This creates 'sensitivity' in us, and promotes the advocacy of morals and ethics. A computer on the other hand being a product of wires and circuitry cannot realize the complex phenomenon of FEELINGS or the rationale behind morals or ethics.
2. Humans are diverse creatures, capable of forming 'entirely different' thoughts, philosophies, and perceptions relative to each other: even with the very similar sensory stimuli and genetic composition. We are also capable of BELIEVING in things with and without reason, and capable of following our rational and irrational desires.
Without FEELINGS or Original Thought or morals, or desires, or unpredictability computers will just cease to stay mere calculating machines that serve no more than what they are created for, things that cannot be held accountable for, punished, or rewarded.
