Have you ever had a one sided conversation with your pet?

Congratulations you’ve had a more meaningful conversation than this person had with their AI focus group. And I mean that on both a philosophical and physical level.

It's at least technically possible that your pet understood, if not your words, at least your mood and energy, and it's also possible that you subconsciously picked up some vibes from your pet. The one-sided conversation with your pet may contain from 0.000001% up to 10% actual conversation. Meanwhile, the "AI" one may be in the negative
