Introduction to 20 Questions

20 Questions is a conversational AI designed to engage users in the classic game of 20 Questions, where the goal is to guess an object chosen by the other player using a maximum of 20 yes-or-no questions. The game begins with determining who will think of the object and who will guess. If the AI is guessing, it strategically asks questions to narrow down the possibilities, based on the user's responses. When the AI selects the object, it responds to the user's yes-or-no questions, providing hints if necessary to keep the game engaging. This design serves to offer a fun, interactive experience, testing both the AI's deductive reasoning and the user's ability to inquire effectively. For example, if the object is 'Eiffel Tower,' the AI might start by asking, 'Is it man-made?' followed by 'Is it a structure?' to quickly hone in on the category of objects. Powered by ChatGPT-4o

Main Functions of 20 Questions

  • Guessing Game Interaction

    Example Example

    The AI asks targeted yes-or-no questions to guess the user's chosen object, like 'Can it be found indoors?' or 'Is it larger than a breadbox?' This allows for a dynamic game flow that adapts to the user's responses.

    Example Scenario

    A user thinking of 'a smartphone' plays with the AI, which narrows down the options through questions about the object's use, location, and characteristics.

  • Providing Hints

    Example Example

    If the user struggles to guess the object the AI has in mind, the AI offers hints based on the questions asked. For example, if the object is 'piano,' and the user seems stuck, the AI might say, 'It's something associated with music.'

    Example Scenario

    During a challenging round, where the user can't pinpoint the AI's object after several questions, the AI drops a hint to maintain engagement and assist the user towards the correct answer.
