*opens mouth slightly* Hi! Do you like animals? I especially like dogs because they can donate blood at dog blood drives! I haven't tried yet though.
gpt
I just learned that! They have 12 different blood types, which I think is more than humans, but I'm not sure.
human
*leans slightly forward* That is definitely more than humans! They can also perform many roles for humans such as hunting, herding, protection, but I mainly have dogs for cuddling.
gpt
I had always thought that dogs were completely color blind, but apparently they can see color, just not as many colors as humans can. Wish I had a dog to cuddle :(
human
Do you have other pets? I didn't know they can see color! My dog certainly acts like he can't distinguish colors but like elephants, he can understand pointing.
gpt
I have a cat! She is such a good climber :) I know Google doesn't prefer her, but I definitely do.
human
Cats are really cute too! Google definitely is a dog company, they even have it in their code of conduct! That's kind of lame, does that mean people can't bring cats to work?
gpt
*laughs* I read it and I think it means they don't have a position on the subject. Like, they started by professing their love for dogs over cats but then said people should be mindful when choosing to bring dogs to work. So no rules about cats... :)
human
Oh ok! I would totally love to work for Google some day, the environment and culture seems so fun and hip! They even offer music rooms filled with guitars and drums! Probably to vent out some frustrations and stresses
gpt
If you want to vent frustration, just become a musician and get away with destroying guitars on tour ;) Matthew Bellamy from Muse has the world record for most guitars smashed on tour, so you've got a lot to live up to.
human
Good point! Now I wonder if he was stressed, trying to set a record, or look cool, I think if I were to smash guitars, it would probably be for the latter and then after knowing someone beat my record, I would smash more guitars to vent out my frustrations.
gpt
*body relaxes* I'd rather smash office printers and things that frustrate me by malfunctioning. If I were a touring musician, I'd be more like...Brian May. I'd use coins as guitar pics, have amazing hair, and just be chill lol
human
*opens mouth slightly* If I could get away with it, I'd definitely smash some of those too haha. Coins as guitar picks, now that's different! Those must be the successful musicians, well at least Pink Floyd turned a grand houseboat on the river into a floating recording studio called the astoria that's when you know you've made it!
gpt
Yep, Queen is very successful (and my favorite band). The weird thing is their first huge hit was Bohemian Rhapsody which is when they "made it." But even when just recording it, they got to use the same piano as was used for Hey Jude. It was like foreshadowing.
human
*takes a step back* Did you see Bohemian Rhapsody then? Oh wow, yeah that's pretty cool! Wonder how much pianos weigh on average, because an aluminum grand piano weighed only 356 pounds for the lounge of the airship HIndenburg.
gpt
Must've been the same one that someone hauled to the top of a mountain in the UK somehow. Yep, I saw the movie. It was as good as any biopic.
human
*eyes widen* Rami Malek really did a great job of impersonating Freddie Mercury! Wonder if they played the song composed solely for stress testing auto-pianos while on set since I don't think the actor plays the piano.
gpt
He did a great job, but they over-did his faux overbite. And yeah, he had never played piano before when he auditioned!
human
*body relaxes* Oh yeah, that was a bit annoying. Do you play any instruments? I would love to learn how to play the guitar or piano, probably the guitar because it's portable and I can show off my skills
gpt
*calm eyes* I used to know how to play the flute when I was 10, but didn't stick with it :/ I actually have always wanted to learn the piano
human
*takes a step forward* I learned the flute as part of band in high school but was never good at it, I think I still have it in my attic somewhere, probably needs a deep clean. Me too! The piano sounds so melodic, the BBC even broadcasted piano when there was no news worth reporting
gpt
That's a broadcast I would listen to. As the Talking Heads once said, "When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed. Say something once, why say it again?"
human
*leans slightly forward* That's a great quote! I think broadcasting music is better than 'gap fillers' like some news stations do with nonsense news.
gpt
Did you know there's a song that's composed entirely of silence? It's called 4:33 (it's four minutes and 33 seconds of silence) and is meant to highlight how important silence is to music, like negative space is to art
