Akinator thinks Rudolf Rocker is Jewish. I found that funny, so I sent Akinator a picture of him.

For context, Rudolf Rocker was a German anarchist and one of the most important theorists of anarcho-syndicalism. He lived and organized in London for years, where he worked closely with Jewish immigrant workers in the East End. He became a leading figure in the Jewish anarchist movement, edited Yiddish anarchist newspapers, and organized workers despite not being Jewish himself.

Rocker opposed nationalism, capitalism, and the state, and argued consistently that workers must liberate themselves through direct action, federalism, and self-managed unions. His work laid much of the theoretical foundation for modern anarcho-syndicalism, especially through his writings on labor, culture, and freedom.

Akinator says Rudolf Rocker has only been played 19 times. Clearly it is time for Akinator to receive a proper education, starting with The London Years and Rocker’s work among anarchists and syndicalists in the British labor movement.

重玩《网络天才》 Akinator

老游戏依然带劲，但是相比于以前，猜对的概率变低了，不知道是我的问题，还是Akinator背后的数据算法跟不上时代了。
不过猜一些热门动漫人物还是很简单的：夜神月、南空直美、尼亚
不过猜出babyface是猜第二次才出来的，导致我没有奖项😡
陶喆和daftpunk还算很热门的，很快猜出来了🤫

Today I learned that you can stump Akinator by thinking about Lao (from Xenoblade X).

The game #akinator is very odd. It didn't reward you for knowing obscure people it doesn't know of. It doesn't reward you for thinking of obscure people it can't guess easily. It seems to reward you for people it can guess first time although they are very obscure.

Which is frankly, bizarre. People very exact and unusual peculiarities, that aren't thought of often.

WTF?

The rules aren't explained!

Oh, and while I am here, some more #realisations:

The #AI we have been fawning over is just a shitty version of #akinator trying to impress you by showing you that it can finish your sentences.

A good sentence-prediction #subroutine does not an AI make.

All it proves is that none of us have any original thoughts. That, if you mash together enough (unoriginal) thoughts, you too can compile a set of sentences that seem coherent and uncommon enough to FEEL unique.
