> Much of our self is shaped by being mammals, with two eyes and two ears and limited perception of the world. Of course we've built visible light cameras and microphones, which mimic our own sensory inputs. Machines will likely have these same sensors. They can have additional sensors (IR, radar, etc.), or not. That's up to us. Touch, taste, smell, and physical sensations of pain and pleasure are not yet modeled in machines, but presumably this would be possible. Human intelligence is molded by hundreds of thousands of years of evolutionary pressure to hunt, procreate, attack other tribes, avoid being eaten, avoid being cast out of the community, etc. Our emotions are likely closely tied to these functions. It's not clear that machines can or should be designed according to these same environmental pressures.
