Why my dog is like a search engine without a taxonomy
This morning i asked my Townes if he wanted a biscuit- i forgot that he isn't the smartest dog in the world and that he can not make the automatic association that a biscuit is a cookie. (read: it really isn't that he is dumb just that he wasn't trained).
So i told him he was like a search engine without a taxonomy and then he looked even more confused. Then we made this video. he is a bit bored because it is the second take so the intial reaction is not 100% but hopefully you get the idea!
As humans we easily make associations between words- machine and dogs can't unless they are "trained".
He is a 4 year old Great Dane in case you are wondering
