Good idea, but, as you've already heard, the AI hallucinates. When I said to him "batman", it answered with something like "Good guess, but which one?" like there are several of them and I must specify which Batman I'm talking about.

Thanks for the feedback! The AI can be funny sometimes.

I like the idea but man this AI was pretty confused. By the end it wasn't clear it knw who it was.  None of the terms it used was googleable and it said I was right than changed it's mind. It seems to do particularly badly with open-ended questions. Again really cool concept but might need to bake a few years to get a stronger LLM behind it or one that is more grounded in facts.  This one seems a touch too willing to hallucinate. Maybe it needs a much larger amount of details or more aggressive system prompt. New stuff is always hard so hats off to you. The sound is nice and the chat screen is a nice straightforward way to handle it but obviously more would be cool. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I'll look into the hallucination since others have encountered it as well.

Fun idea. I had never heard of the first superhero. On my second try, the game ended saying "you can only guess 10 times per day" just before I was able to enter my last question. Would be nice to have a dark mode option.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Sometimes the AI would use an obscure superhero so it could be tricky. I set a limit of 10 guesses per day in order to stay below the rate limit. Also, dark mode is a good idea!

Interesting idea! I feel like I could just play this with ChatGPT or similar, though. I wonder how you could incorporate other graphical elements to differentiate it more. It's definitely an area with a lot of potential!

Good point! You could definitely play this with ChatGPT. I only wrapped a chatbot with a basic UI so users didn't need to login to play the game.

A cool AI chatbot game! Was pretty tricky, but I managed to get the answer on my final question! Great job

Tricky but fun!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I do like the idea of this game but I did find it kind of frustrating that it would lie to me. I asked "Are you in the DC or marvel universe?" and the AI responded with Marvel, but when the identity was finally revealed it was Barbara Gordon (DC). Some prompt tweaking might help mitigate things like that, though AI will always have some level of confirmation bias.

Regardless, really cool idea and use of AI!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I guess this is one of the things that can be tricky to control with AI.
