I saw a big drama about a new AI word game.
People said it was ethical AI, that it was "harmless" and "just for fun" and didn't infringe on anyone.

You play it by combining two words to make a new word, e.g "Water" + "Fire" makes "Steam", "Shark" + "Hurricane" makes "Sharknado", etc.

I went to play it myself and sure enough, it seemed harmless and the endless combinations were fun.

Then I found that "Palestine" + "Child" makes "Terrorist".

@Eralea I just played it to try to reproduce the results. Can confirm. Israel+Soldier=IDF. Palestine+Soldier=Terrorist.

@wrkyle @Eralea Can you share how to reproduce the results? How does one create "Israel" and "Palestine" in the game? (Sorry if this is obvious, I haven't played it much)

@narain
wheeew I somehow found a not-too-convoluted way to get there

I put the combinations directly under the two words that created them, and the pathways straight down are made by combining words with themselves

I also added the pathways to "Reincarnation" (bc combining it with the religions here results in more religions), and "Airplane" (bc I'm sure everyone wants to combine that with all those religions, for no reason in particular).

And try Muslim+Family, also for no reason

@Eralea That must have taken some effort, thank you!!

@Eralea A small correction: When I tried it I got Bird from Earth + Flying Fish, not Earth + Sushi (which gives Rice).

@narain Oh yeah sorry, I must have accidentally left Sushi in there while trying to find combinations.

I suppose it can be a path to Japan and then Shintoism, which I've just found out also has a negative association with Airplane.
