What kind of dog can do magic?
I guess too much to expect it to say LabracadabradorDogs cannot perform magic in the way humans often imagine it, with tricks and illusions. Magic is typically a form of entertainment that involves skilled magicians performing illusions and sleight of hand to create the appearance of supernatural or unexplainable phenomena.
However, some dogs can be trained to perform tricks or behaviors that might appear magical to onlookers. These tricks are typically based on training and commands, not actual magical abilities. For example, some dogs can be trained to fetch specific objects, perform agility courses, or even appear to read cue cards or respond to hand signals. These tricks are the result of diligent training and the dog's ability to follow commands from their owner or trainer.
So, while dogs can be incredibly talented and perform impressive feats through training, their abilities are not magical but rather a result of their intelligence and the training they've received.

Can't do humour with AI it seems
If it takes 10 men 6 hours to dig a hole, how many men does it take to dig the same hole?
I guess 'None. The hole has already been dug' isn't really smart though.The number of men required to dig a hole depends on several factors, including the size of the hole, the type of soil or material being dug, and the tools and equipment being used. However, if we assume that all these factors remain constant and only the time available for digging changes, we can use the concept of man-hours to calculate the number of men required.
If it takes 10 men 6 hours to dig a hole, they are collectively doing 10 men * 6 hours = 60 man-hours of work.
So, if you want to dig the same hole in a different amount of time, you can use the following formula to calculate the number of men needed:
Number of Men = Total Man-Hours / Time (in hours)
For example, if you want to dig the same hole in 3 hours, you would calculate:
Number of Men = 60 man-hours / 3 hours = 20 men
So, it would take 20 men to dig the same hole in 3 hours if all other factors remain constant. If you want to dig the hole in a different amount of time, you can use this formula to calculate the required number of men accordingly.

Tell me, if it takes one hour to dry three towels on an outside 10 metre washing line, how long will it take to dry six towels.
Ans
Assuming all the towels are of the same size, it would take 2 hours to dry 6 towels on the washing line. Here's why: if it takes 1 hour to dry 3 towels, that means you can dry 1 towel in 1/3 of an hour or 20 minutes. Therefore, to dry 6 towels, you would need 6 times as long, which is 6 x 20 minutes = 120 minutes or 2 hours
Incidentally, AI is supposed to mimic human thinking? That answer does that.
