Akinator

Think of ANY character, person even if you think it's ridiculous that he would find it, and answer yes/no/I dunno questions.. so far he has found almost everything I've thought of. WARNING: you wanna try a new character everytime, so you might get addicted.

Just did it, he guessed right. Even pulled up a picture of him. Bender from Futurama. I loved the last questions:

Does your character drink?
Does your character smoke cigars?
Has your character been to space?

Love it.

Hahah, it's like he reads your mind and asks you the right questions. Am a Futurama-fan myself by the way

He does guess things that have made me almost fall off my chair.. for anyone who has played the Monkey Island games, he found Murray, the floating talking skull..

Wow, it guessed mine. Peter Griffin from Family Guy.

Does your character have a talking dog?
Is your character fat?
Is your character an animated cartoon series?

When it asked those, I knew it was gonna guess it.

You're going too easy on him. It found Ernie the giant chicken from Family Guy.
"Does your character belong to an animated cartoon?"

"Is your character some kind of a bird?"

"Does your character fight?"

It guessed Clarice Starling from Silence of the Lambs (surprisingly fast too)
and Trey Anastasio, but that one took a couple of tries.

I have trouble making it guess the right celebrities, but it's easier making it guess totally far-out-there things.

Couldn't get an NBA player from the '60s and '70s who wasn't a huge star, but zeroed in and suggested two other guys on the same team. Interesting.

I was pleased that it got Scout in To Kill a Mockingbird on the first try.

I'll give that Virtual Seer some credit, as it got pretty close to the presumably-obscure SF character I hit it with (my memory is scary good, as I've said). The character is Errit Stattor, the benificent-in-his-own mind, utterly horrible dictator of an imagined future star-spanning human civilization ["In the Realm of the Heart, In the World of the Knife"]. The program came up with Baron Vladimir Harkonnen. Not too shabby...

When I did my big old-book cleanout, this story was one of several in one anthology good enough to spare it from the purge. I like this particular story because it used to drive me nuts, having the bad guy "win", but I sensed something under the surface and so kept at it. It took at least half a dozen rereads, over the span of a few years, before I realized just what the author was up to, and when it clicked for me it was a real nifty "aha!" moment.

He got Dr. Frasier Crane right the first time, but it took him two guesses to get Nostradamus right. Big fun!

Three tries to get Andy Gibb, but got Richard Nixon on the first try. Also Starbuck from the original Battlestar Galactica on the first try. Impressive.

Ha, it totally got Isaac Asimov (asked me a lot of questions about him, though). I could tell it was getting it right when it started asking things like... "Did your character write a story that was adapted for a movie?" "Did your character write about robotics?"

It got Phoebe from Charmed like 10x faster.

Very cool and fun. Thanks, Jon, for sharing.
