Eventually, we need to have computers that work differently from the way they do today and have for the past 60-plus years.

If you are uninterested in what I say, there's an end to it. If you like what I say, please try to understand which previous influences have made you like it.

Everything is being run by computers. Everything is reliant on these computers working. We have become very reliant on Internet, on basic things like electricity, obviously, on computers working.
