There are some things we do much better than computers, but since most of chess is tactically based they do many things better than humans. And this imbalance remains. I no longer have any issues. It's bit like asking an astronomer, does he mind that a telescope does all the work. He is used to it. It is just an incredible tool that you can use.

When I was about six, I saw my elder siblings play chess and pestered my mother into teaching me. Very soon, I was beating everyone at home, and they thought it would be good to join a club. So my sister would take me to the Tal chess club on Thursdays and weekends.

In any match, there are few critical moments where there's no second best decision. The rest of the moves are intuitive.

Before a match, I do not follow any chess news except the games.

Being the undisputed world champion is a relief. We instituted a unified chess title, I am the absolute world champion.

My practice schedule is not constant and changes a lot and depends on my moods also.

Chess as a sport requires a lot of mental stamina, and this is what that makes it different from a physical sport. Chess players have a unique ability of taking in a lot of information and remembering relevant bits. So, memory and mental stamina are the key attributes.
