To get the ad to work, you need a product with a shape so iconic that you can invoke it in such a minimalist way.

Just amazing work.

Thank you very much. Earlier today, it was stuck in my head for about an hour, right after reading this.

I started playing a new game called Semantle. You guess words, and the server tells you how close you are to the word based on Word2vec. The closest I've gotten is 26.23 similarity. Definitely takes the day to try different guesses to help narrow in on the word.

From the website:

Guess the secret word

Each guess must be a word (of any length) or short phrase. The game will tell you how semantically similar it thinks your word is to the secret word. Unlike that other word game, it's not about the spelling; it's about the meaning. The similarity value comes from Word2vec. The highest possible similarity is 100 (indicating that the words are identical and you have won).

The "Getting close" indicator tells you how close you are --if your word is one of the 1,000 nearest normal words to the target word, the rank will be given (1000 is the target word itself). If your word is not one of the nearest 1000, you're "cold". (By "normal" words", I mean non-capitalized words that appears in a very large English word list; there are lots of capitalized, misspelled, or obscure words that might be close but that won't get a ranking. Those get marked with "????").

You will need more than six guesses. You will probably need dozens of guesses. There's a new word every day, where a day starts at midnight UTC.

Secret words may be any part of speech, but will always be single words. It's tempting to think only of nouns, since that is how normal semantic word-guessing games work. Don't get caught in the trap! Since our Word2vec data set contains some proper nouns, guesses are case-sensitive. But I removed all but lower-case words from the secret word set, and if your word matches the secret word but for case, you win anyway. So if you want to know if the word is more like nice or Nice, you can ask about both.

Right now I'm at 27.39 (368/1000) for today's word. I can't get any closer. This probably needs its own thread here if it starts to pick up steam.

Nice! Something odd happened with mine, I think related to working on yesterday's word today, and it's all screwy. Hopefully, it'll straighten itself out with the reset tonight.

That was interesting. Once I got 914/1000 (or 33.71) at guess 55 and 491/1000 (or 28.14) as guess 59, a dutch word popped up and after translating that, it turned out to be the solution. I still was, uhm... surprised.
