I have been doing this for like 3 hours here at work, thought I'd share it with the gprime world.

Some guy's made an artificial intellegence computer that you can talk too and play 20 questions with.

I guessed random things like:

A shaver
an mp3 player
a bar of soap
a moose (canada eh!?)
a coin
a planet
scotch tape

etc

it got them all in under 20 questions

Check out the site at
http://20Q.net

That was fun! :)

it didn't get it when i was thinking of a crystal. But it got PC in 17 questions :)

pretty fun

My first thing was a toad, which it guessed. But it couldn't get chair.

I won with candle. But it guessed cucumber and Human Being.

This game is just like that "guess the dictator/sitcom character" game, except with less questions. That game asked you, like, 50,000 questions before it guessed correctly. Hehe...

I "won" with speaker. Perhaps I answered a question deceptively.

Question 15 is kinda right, kinda not. I probably should have put "sometimes". Meh.

Hey guys, is a shower curtain larger than a microwave oven (or a bread box)?

I put "no", because it actually doesn't have much volume. Maybe that deceiveld it...

Burgerking teamed up with star wars to make something similar:
http://www.sithsense.com/flash.htm

Maybe they bought it off them? :P

Thats awsome! they have little handheld versions of that at this department store that i go to. It got stuffed animat and i was hardly even thinking about If it was commonly used and stuff like that!

^yes, I have also seen the handheld version of 20Q, I believe it was at walmart. hehe. :happy:


And in response to John's comment, yes, I believe Burger King bought rights from 20Q to use their system for their flash. If you pay attention, the bank of questions is EXACTLY the same in both versions, word-for-word.

The Sith Sense one was much more entertaining. :D

And George Lucas sold the soul of Episode III to everything...

Star Wars M&Ms... Burger King has Star Wars everything... Star Wars Slurpee cups. (I have all four. XD)

But yeah. See my point?
