If computers achieve consciousness, it will first come by mimicking the process of biological brains.  There are two ways you can go on this.
  1. Computers will one day be capable of faithfully mimicking the way brains work and thus behavior, or,
  2. Computers will never be capable of mimicking human behaviors and thought.
The rest is just speculation.
