What? My point is that I drew the same doodle for different words, and for each word it put forth a different _first_ guess.
The first guess for each doodle was the word that was provided -- if this software was completely legitimate, I would think it should have guessed the same word for each (and then moved on to other guesses).
They weren't really the same though, right? Only similar.
A good test for that would be to script the game and give it pixel-identical answers for each questions and see if the result is different.
Correct that they were not identical, but they were quite close; five lines that looked like a 'w'.
FWIW it guessed my lightning correctly (a simple `z` like shape). Its 2nd guess was "zig-zag" and the 3rd one "star" for some reason. So it really looks like for this network a zig-zag and a star are more similar than I would've guessed.
I guess a star is a zig zag looping on itself, kinda.
I wonder if the zig-zag drawing and the stairs were actually as similar as you remember.
For instance, our sub-conscious tendency when drawing stairs would be to have straight lines at 0 and 90 degrees but a "zig-zag" wouldn't necessarily have that feature. Thus, even though you thought the drawings were the same, there were sufficient detectable differences for the AI to recognize.
If what you're supposed to be drawing is ranked 'sufficiently high' the game/training side of it moves on to the next.
