Human: What are the benefits of drinking water from the tap? Assistant: 
The primary benefit of drinking tap water is that it’s free! It doesn’t cost anything to get your daily recommended intake of 8 glasses, so there is no financial incentive not to drink tap water. Additionally, tap water is usually cleaner and safer than other sources of water such as bottled or filtered water. Tap water is also generally more consistent in terms of quality than other types of water, since it is monitored by local authorities for safety standards. Finally, drinking tap water can help you stay hydrated throughout the day without having to worry about the quality of the water.
