How about you?", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "I do too, although sometimes they can be inaccurate.

Mostly waiting.", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "haha ya, lots of waiting and doing nothihng, have you ever ridden a horse", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "Nope, never ridden a horse. Haven't eaten one either.", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "haha nope I have ridden one, I guess they evolved over like 50 million years", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "They went from multi-toed to single-toed. I guess they were more useful to humans that way.", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "ya I think so, they became really widespread about 3000BC, so kind of a long time", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "Interspecies utility is interesting. Dalmatians are associated with firefighting because they would calm the horses.", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "that's nice of them. did you knw clint eastwood was allergic to horses?", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "Yeah, he acquired an allergy later in life.

His wife or ex-wife also appeared in Christopher Nolan's film, Inception.", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "Thats Elon Musk's wife? I didnt know that! she is a good actress.", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "I'm not sure which character she played, but according to the article, she appeared in it.

I've never ridden a horse, but they seem like majestic animals.", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "I wish I were Clint Eastwood!

What else is there?", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "yes its something called Tolt, I don't know exactly how fast that is though lol", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "I guess they have used horses there for many purposes. What do you think of the two high school students who rode their horses to school on 'no vehicles to school day', and got suspended?", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "I think that was genius but pretty dumb that they got suspended haha. What do you think about Dalmatians? Do you know how they are related to horses", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "I know that they are used by firefighters. I heard that they were deaf or something.", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "Yes a lot of them are actually deaf. What do you think about Elon Musk by the way? I know that's a change of topic haha", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "That is a change of topic. He is not a dalmatian, or a horse, or deaf. I think that he is ambitious and trying to create new technology. You?", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "Yes he seems very smart and also very ambitious. I think he has a dog but it's not a Dalmatian though haha. His wife also appeared in the movie Inception by the way", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "I thought he got divorced? Is he still married? She must be pretty.", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "I think he is still married.

Go watch Thanks for Smoking again.", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "Yes I'm going to check it out very soon, I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for Elon Musk haha. also I'll keep my eyes peeled for his rocket that will colonize Mars haha", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "Yes, I will wait for Elon to travel on it first though before I go.

He is worth over 20 billion dollars after all.", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "Yeah I guess so, just seems like a waste with all the poor families and kids without homes in the world, to think Musk was born in 1971, he sure has taken advantage of his time on earth", "from": "agent_1" }, { "content": "He really has. I think he can be inspiring. I can see how it could be wasteful to spend money like that but on the other hand he shows people to just do what they want with what they have. It's a lot like Galileo back in the day building a telescope. To me it's a way to say give your imagination free reign and try stuff. Tesla is an electronic car company that he founded in the day and age where the big automakers dominate but he is giving it a try.", "from": "agent_2" }, { "content": "Yeah I guess his contributions to socitety are bigger, one day he will be remembered as Galileo and other historic figures.", "from": "agent_1" } ]
