Personally, I rather look forward to a computer program winning the world chess championship. Humanity needs a lesson in humility.
I know as an actor there is a certain liberation auditioning for a role that has no beauty requirements.
Do I believe in the supernatural? Oh yes, certainly. I can't believe, I can't accept that you die and that's the end. Physically maybe it is a fact. But there's something about the mind that's more than that.
