Lonely? Have a Scintillating Chat With Google Assistant

Who woulda thought that Google Assistant can be such wonderful company.  Granted, it might take a compulsory quarantine to drive us to this point.   But you’d be surprised by the wit and insight that the AI engineers at Google have imagineered.  We’ve assembled a list of questions and requests that you can pose to your Google Assistant device that should result in a very novel dialogue with a fairly intelligent AI device.  The good news is that you’ll feel that you had a clever conversation with an almost-human being.  Even more good news is that after our suggested conversation, you’ll feel oddly better about yourself.  The bad news is that Google Assistant simply isn’t as huggable as a person, pet or plush toy.  So the benefit will be more cerebral than kinesthetic.  Take a look at our proposed conversation below and try it out.   We think you’ll be pleased…..and you might even learn a few things from your new best friend!

And remember to preface all of these questions/requests with “Hey Google” unless you’ve enabled continued conversation mode, which gives you 10 seconds between commands.
