I have a prediction.  As we all know, the best grandmasters of chess can no
longer beat even midsize comps.  One day soon though, there's going to be
one zany kid appear, perhaps Magnus Carlsen has already begun to learn how
to do it, he'll start beating the comps.  All the way to the best comps on
this world.

Then others are going to start learning how to do it.  Even people even
older than Carlsen.

Then some of us might get a tad paranoid.  Is this person, is he, doesn't
he Have to be a machine, if he's beating the best machines?  Musn't he ergo
logico no longer be human?

Or are they humans who have simply learned the machines' language?

Fringetown, appearing tonight.  I like that show, I think I may watch it.
