This book is largely an experiment and a humorous treatise to the growing prevalence of AI driven literature.

If you have been looking for the answer to such notable quandaries as \"Who would win in a fight: 100 duck sized horses or a single horse sized duck?\" or perhaps you're wondering about the title of the first album from 'The Crocodile Country Band' (before they pivoted to the punk genre), this is the book for you.

There is no rhyme or reason to this book. Well... actually there is rhyme. There are a number of sea shanties and ballads which do technically rhyme. And actually now that I think about it there is an effort at reason when the question is asked \"If a husband decides to do something and his wife isn't there to see, is he still wrong?\".

Yes, the answers to all of this and so much more is here for your reading pleasure.

Along the way this is a glimpse into the current state of artificial intelligence chat programs and perhaps a benchmark for comparison with the inevitable sequel \"Asking for a Friend II: Could you repeat that?\"
