Dolly Parton reportedly indicated in a recent press conference in London that she is not interested in living on as an AI hologram after death.
The Independent quotes Parton as saying, "I think I've left a great body of work behind. I have to decide how much of that high-tech stuff I want to be involved [with] because I don't want to leave my soul here on this earth.
"I think with some of this stuff, I'll be grounded here forever … I'll be around — we'll find ways to keep me here," she added.
Parton was sharing her thoughts after being asked whether she would ever consider creating a show utilizing a hologram version of herself.
The Independent also mentioned that the country icon joked that "any intelligence" that she had was artificial.
