This week’s questions were generated by Google Bard in response to the prompt, “Please list five good getting-to-know-you questions.” As you might expect, they are not very creative. In fact, Google Bard gave me a second “here are some other…” list, and these questions all came from that. Don’t worry; I don’t plan to do this again. It was just to see what would happen. 🙂

1. What is your favorite thing to learn about?
2. What is your favorite thing to do with your friends?
3. What is your favorite place you’ve ever been?
4. What is your favorite way to relax?
5. What is your favorite thing to cook?

The Bard adds: “These are just a few examples, and there are many other great getting-to-know-you questions out there. The best questions are the ones that are open-ended and allow for conversation. So, get creative and ask questions that will help you get to know the people you meet in a deeper way.”

Thanks for participating, and have a lovely, educational, friendly, relaxing, safe weekend!
