Is it possible for creatures with intelligence more advanced than humans to evolve naturally in the universe?

Possibly, for us, it was a combination of different things after it reached a certain level:

Aliens may have more efficient brains than humans, like birds, or even more efficient than any animal on Earth.

Human intelligence is limited by how the brain works, and how big the head on a baby can be.

Are today’s baseball pitchers faster than a few years ago, or is it that radar guns have improved and get the pitch speed as it is released rather than as it reaches the plate?

They may also not have the same limitations for the size of a birth canal. If they are similar to marsupials, the baby would be born very small and then develop in the pouch, without head restrictions of the birth canal.

So let's say that the aliens have fewer restrictions on brain size, and have more efficient brain wetware, and are subject to sexual selection for intelligence, then they will likely be much more intelligent than us.

Right here on Earth, birds have at least twice as dense brains as humans. That means that they cram at least twice the computing capacity in the same space as primates. If we had bird brains we might have been much more intelligent.

Why are fewer English people going to their local pubs for a drink? Are they aware that many pubs are shutting down due to lack of customers?

And since the universe is so enormously big, it would be strange if we were the most intelligent creatures. Though, we will probably never find out.

Then we can wonder about the evolutionary selection pressure for intelligence.

Sexual selection. Intelligence is sexy. If you could tell a better story, make a better plan, make a better tool or weapon, you would be popular and get laid.

What are "demonic attacks" and how can one tell when they're happening to them, or someone else? How would one go about dealing with it?

Social groups, and theory of mind. You needed to keep tabs on everyone in the group and understand their drives. Being able to negotiate. It takes intelligence to succeed with this.
