This is just amazing

Give this a try and you'll be amazed. 20 questions and some great artificial intelligance programing is all it takes to figure out what object you have.

Pretty interesting. My guess was galactose, a monosaccharide. It guessed zinc in 19 guesses. Not too close but it did pick a chemical.

One of the questions was "Is it inorganic?" My answer was no because galactose is organic, yet it still guesses zinc and then potassium 8 questions later.

For a computer program it was pretty good.

Pretty interesting. I thought it was cool. I picked a few different things. One question it asked me was would I touch it with a ten foot pole. Pretty funny.

It's easy to beat if you pick extremely specific items. I just picked items around the apartment and it got all but one. I can only imagine what it took to get something like that to work.

I picked an Action Figure stand and it came up with "egg timer" at 19. Nice try, but no. Then it kept trying, came up with "cue ball" at #29, "hourglass" at #30, then it told me I won and gave me a list of things to choose from, and asked me to put in what it was.

Ya I won it, it guessed a restaurant, a motel and then a hotel...I was thinking of a bookstore.

That was fun :)

[scruffziller]

It is funny because I used a taboo subject and it caught on to the game and it even responded as such, it is good.:D

[El Chuxter]

It guessed "pirate" and "bear" in 19 questions each, but "mutant" stumped it. However, mutants are apparently similar to: people (human beings), a knight, a fool, a family, a crush (in love), a speaker, an enemy, love, a cousin, a wish, a spider monkey, a television set.

I wish the X-Men were real so I could tell Wolvie that he's similar to a spider monkey and a television set. :crazed:

[El Chuxter]

Okay, talk about relative. :)

You were thinking of a hand gun.
Is it straight? You said Irrelevant, I say Yes.
Is it used in travel? You said Yes, I say No.
Can you sit on it? You said Probably, I say No.
Do you use it in public? You said Doubtful, I say Yes.
Is it pleasurable? You said Doubtful, I say Yes.

First I of course thought of a action figure. I then realize that that was to specific, so then I just changed my thought to a toy. I beat it. It first guessed shoes, then something else. Took it 23 Q's to come up with model car, wich I guess is a toy.

I then went on to picture frame and it got it in 19 Q's. Pretty cool! To bad these people couldn't write this program to make them some money.

It never guessed that I was a soap dish. Although it got just about every other household object or appliance. Pretty nifty if you ask me.

[JediTricks]

They've added more answer choices to the mix.

[Dark Knight]

It cool as all get out :D . It's good. It took 25 times to guess my object.

[stillakid]

I picked "thong." It missed. :Pirate:

[Exhaust Port]

I tried the "taboo" subject that Scruffziller had tried and I too got a pretty funny response from the program. :D

[Jon]

It took the computer 29 questions to get Puffin. That is pretty cool.

[Bel-Cam Jos]

Bizarre... :crazed:
But I was impressed that it got "baked potato" in 13 tries.
Here's what it said for one of my objects:

Uncommon Knowledge about a hockey puck
Would you touch it with a 10-foot pole? I say Doubtful.
Is it bad for your health? I say Probably. :confused:
Do you write on it? I say Probably.
Does it eat fish? I say Probably. :confused:
Is it cold? I say Yes.
Is it healthy? I say Probably. :confused:
Can liquids pass through it? I say Probably. :confused:
Can it do tricks? I say Probably. :confused:
Is it a renewable resource? I say Probably.
Is it useful? I say No.
Does it travel on roads? I say Probably.
Can it be trained to obey commands? I say Probably. :confused: :confused:
Can you find it in a house? I say No.
Can you jump on it? I say Probably.
Is it cool? I say Yes.
Can it save your life? I say Probably. :confused:

Odd world this AI being lives in... :rolleyes: And the more items you try, the odder and funnier it gets! :eek:

[InsaneJediGirl]

Wow,it took 30 questions and it still didnt guess that I was thinking "DVD Disk" but came close with video game.

[Hasbro'sBountyHunter]

Thats pretty cool. It took 27 tries to figure out "cell phone."
