    These people put out a little handheld that some coders with more talent than I attempted to confuse. Even when the toy failed to guess exactly it got pretty close and everyone was impressed. I was skeptical at first, but they must have some pretty creative coders behind their product.

      Yes. A nicely expanded implementation of an old standard. Now imagine that program generalized so the "players" can say anything they want, about any subject they please, in Plain English - instead of just answering questions by picking one of several options. Then let that generalized system "get smarter the more people play", over a period of years, using similar weighting algorithms and input from thousands of pre-qualified people, and you'll have a glimpse of our "apparently intelligent"(tm) PAL 3000 machine - and how we intend to teach it. ---

      Some of the Parts [^]

        It really did not. It failed when I thought of a bike engine.

                It did "video game console" in 20 questions. It did think about the xbox 360, but video game console is fair enough. :) I have to be going man.. why did you release this bomb of not-going-anywhere now? ;P

                  Old stuff. :) I thought of Dagger, but there was no way it could guess it within 20 questions. I changed it to Knife after that(no relevant questions were asked before that), and after asking if people use it for cooking, it guessed Knife after 29 questions.

                    hmmm..Yeahh.. I purposefully obfuscated it. :laugh: , when I call something a "surprise" I want that to be a real surprise rather than exposing everything out and making it lose it's meaning. But damnit, I should have replied to you. Sorry Vik. :sigh: .Okay.. put the aqua-lung on again, we'll talk down there :-D..bblk..bllgk..*bubbles*

                                  For me it did Andruw Jones in 19 questions, Wrigley Field in 20 questions and Neo (from Matrix) in 22 questions.

                                    actually, it doesn't get any smarter at all. It is a multi-leaf database storage system. By traversing the multi-leaf system you can store exponential amounts of data. When you defeat it with say... William Rowan Hamilton, someone reviews your answers with the historical record. They may get a chuckle out of answering was he "popular in the 80's" but doubtful, since he received acclaim in the 1880's and a rebirth in the 1980's in only the gaming market. Was he involved in a controversy? yes, though again the eye-roll since the controversy over a mathematical discovery is considered rather "boring". But in the end, a database operator will assign the leaf storage nodes to William Rowan Hamilton, and he will then be accessible through the index. It is generally called a minimal depth tree. :) I use them regularly. Very handy, but just storage.

                                        :-O I was first introduced to that about a year ago or more. I did exactly that. I lied outright about everything, or at the very least exaggerated. Though it still guessed it when I tried to say Elvis Presley was still alive.... :wtf: I began wondering how many other people were doing just that same thing, so I stopped and ignored it for a while. Now when I see it, I just pick the most obscure mathematicians and physicists or even philosophers I can find. :) I actually beat it more often now than I did when I was lying to it. :) Too many people lie predictably, making it easier on the database. Bread is bigger than a breadbox type thing. It doesn't lead it far enough away from the truth.

                                          actually, it doesn't get any smarter at all. It is a multi-leaf database storage system. By traversing the multi-leaf system you can store exponential amounts of data. When you defeat it with say... William Rowan Hamilton, someone reviews your answers with the historical record. They may get a chuckle out of answering was he "popular in the 80's" but doubtful, since he received acclaim in the 1880's and a rebirth in the 1980's in only the gaming market. Was he involved in a controversy? yes, though again the eye-roll since the controversy over a mathematical discovery is considered rather "boring". But in the end, a database operator will assign the leaf storage nodes to William Rowan Hamilton, and he will then be accessible through the index. It is generally called a minimal depth tree. :) I use them regularly. Very handy, but just storage.

                                          Ummm...yeah. I don't think anyone really believes the software gets smart; it's the illusion that's interesting.
