Do you read Romance novels?
gpt
i dont. i do like to read. do you like romance novels?
human
No I think they are really boring. I like murder mysteries. The Brits write the best ones. Like Agatha Christie. I like to see if I can figure them out before the end.
gpt
yes, it really is a cognitive challenge. people like to form theories and test them as they read. i usually read non fiction though. 
human
I will read a textbook if the subject is biology or a science. I haven't read too many since college. I also have favorites like The Lord of the Rings.
gpt
Yeah, that was a great series. i read that when i was young. it was like literature, but the story was not dry. the level of language was great!
human
Tolkein was an English Professor, I think. The English have more colorful words to describe things than Americans.
gpt
he loved language, including dead ones. he was a prof at Oxford i believe. they do love language more in the UK
human
*body relaxes* Yes, you are right. Reading an American murder mystery is never as interesting as a British one. I do like Nevada Barr, though. She is an American Park Ranger and writes some very interesting mysteries.
gpt
*hands at sides* I have not heard of her. She is a park ranger? that must make for some interesting stories.
human
So far she has written about almost all of the national parks and from a Ranger's point of view.
gpt
That is a good story. nothing typical or cliched about that. has she won any awards?
human
I am not sure. I think she has. I usually read by author and I should know. I will have to look that up.
gpt
Do you read SF? The term "robotics" was accidentally coined by science fiction author isaac asimov in 1941.
human
I enjoy Asimov but that is not typically my genre. Some of the science fiction portrayed on the old Star Trek series is coming true. Look at their communicators for instance.
gpt
yeah, the imagination leads to the creation of the technology. sci fi is fun that way. imagine it, and then the engineers will come up with it! LOL
human
Poe came up with the term cyborg in one of his stories. I think he was a really creepy man but I would have loved to have met him. I like his poem 'The Bells' the best.
gpt
He only got a few bucks for the Raven. i wonder how much money he got in general for his writing.
human
Whatever he made I think was spent on alcohol and drugs. What a shame. Then again, maybe he would not have been a good writer if he had been a normal person. Also, I love that poem too.
gpt
True, it is a curse to be creative. it is hard to get into the creative mood. Anyway, great chat!
human
Yes, thank you and have a great day!
gpt
Thanks! You too!
human
Bye-I hope this submits.
gpt
Yeah, i hope so too! 
human

gpt
Ok bye bye!
