Today's puzzle: pasta + noodle − lasagna = ?
I built this for fun. Enjoy!
Consider A/B testing a non-techie alternative without the math or embedding gloss, sort of like analogy-completion, using words: e.g., "What's a pasta with noodles but nothing like lasagna?"
Part of my attraction to NYTimes Wordle is seeing how I do relative to other users, and how much was luck. In this game I do want to get it right, but I'm also interested in whether others made the same mistake/answer (for this answer, or similarity to others on a series of answers). This social aspect is catnip to game buyers, sites that want to add games to attract users.
I'd be particularly interested if, after observing my answers, it could start to predict my answers. I'm not sure, though, what UI would enable you to prove the machine made the prediction before I made my choice, without showing the prediction. Maybe display the prediction encrypted and then give the key to decrypt (even just for user keys like a rotation cypher)?
I've tried some on Gemini 2.5 Flash and it can solve them after giving one example.
