Artificial Intellegence [and no, I'm NOT referring to any of the posters here...even though some present a tempting target

] is something that fascinates me.

To experience an example of it first-hand, go here:
http://20q.net/index.html

It's a legit site and there's no childish pranks involved.

It took only 15 questions to hit on "swiss army knife".

Spooky!! :eek

OK... if that's the way you wanna play it... I thought of "Tig"-- AI came up with "jellyfish" in 18 questions-- which, for me, was close enough...

I have a hand-held one at home, and it's pretty good. Though the online one is better. I tried "land mine", and my hand-held only got as close as "fire hydrant", but the online one got as close as "bomb", which isn't far off at all.

Well objects like TV's are things.

Well I didn't get anything I could copy and paste.

I was thinking a fax machine and it asked me 25 q and lost. Surprised it didn't ask you what you were thinking of.

Also did it thinking of a calculator and it lost with 25 q.

yes sis, tv's are things, but i didn't ask a specific thing.. such as a sony television or a panasonic television, etc.. television is very generic.. using a brand name would be specific.. get the difference?? LOL

same as using president bush is specificly a person.. whereas the president of the united states is not..
