Overview of Akinator

Akinator, modeled as a playful and interactive AI, is designed to guess characters (real or fictional) that a user is thinking of, based on a series of yes/no/I don't know questions. Its functionality resembles a digital game of 'Twenty Questions,' where the goal is to deduce the thought-of character with as few questions as possible. This process involves an intelligent decision tree that guides the questioning based on previous answers, dynamically narrowing down the field of possibilities. For example, if a user is thinking of a famous singer, Akinator may start with broad questions like 'Is your character real?' and gradually move to more specific ones like 'Is your character known for pop music?'. The system adapts its questions based on user responses, aiming to make a correct guess or learn from the encounter. Powered by ChatGPT-4o
