Rorie you're not stopping the the AI from learning, it learns when you try to "mess" with it as well. Just like humans do as we often learn more from our mistakes.
Also I can see why you guys would think there is some trickery going on behind the scenes but if they programmed it how I think they did then it's perfectly normal for it to guess before you think it should.
I'm guessing that there is a limited number of items that it can guess maybe a few thousand and I'll use the Mona Lisa as an example. It probably doesn't have more then a handful items that would look like a framed painting and even less that would be a famous painting. So if you knew all the possibilities that could be drawn you could very easily narrow it down to the correct one. Just like the calculator It probably only has a few items that would have rectangles in rectangles so it would be pretty easy for it to guess.
This is just my hypothesis on this and I could be totally wrong but I would think they would start it off small so it has a good data set to build off of. They will probably add more items/ more complex items as it gets smarter.
Alex it makes no sense for you to stay on the ship, if a group comes there's no way you will win 4v1, you might as well go with your team and have fun. Just try to park closer to the islands, you can do it.
I'm one of the biggest fans of your shenanigans Dan but you need to find a better balance between screwing around and paying attention to help your team it started to annoy even me.
**Also next time Dan leaves you should all vote him in the brig.
