Yes; in my view, if you're a consciousness in another body, you're not human any longer. If you're embodied in a computer and conscious, you are a conscious computer - if you have always been that way. But if you were once a conscious human in a society of humans and now a conscious computer who was once a human in a society of computers (or even in a society of humans), then you'll be experiencing quite a lot of cognitive dissonances, as your inputs and outputs are remapped to your new capabilities. It's why I don't generally buy-in to the computational theory of mind, even if utilizing terms used for computers is sometimes helpful in analogizing our consciousness to 'something'. In the 1940s, we analogized to telephone switchboards. If a higher technology comes up, we'll analogize the consciousness to that as well. Interestingly - I just noticed I fell into the same trap; disassociating cnsciousness to being something that can be mapped within a computer's circuits. I'm not sure how to use the language properly to describe it better though... In short, I believe conscousness is a product of the thinking processes, the environment the thinking processes itself in (the body and the "world outside" as it were), and that which whom he/she socializes/has contact with [to compare/contrast one's 'self' with]
