20Q Reflection

Today we played around with the 20Q website to see how artificial intelligence works. The first category we chose was "Think Like an American" and our object was a panda. Before beginning, it always asked for information about yourself including gender, age, and the country you live in. In our first game it guessed correctly in only 17 questions. In our second game we did the Disney category and it guessed correctly at 17 questions again. In the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh game it guessed incorrectly every time. I was really surprised with the results because I thought that the game would be pretty up to date with its knowledge since it is an online based game, but whenever we tried to get it  to guess current topics such as Harry Styles, the movie "The Fault in Our Stars," and even Donald Trump including clues about his run for presidency, the computer just could not guess correctly.
