I have been playing this all day. The 20Q Name Game question is super creepy (it guessed mine on the first try).

I learned about this game from Joester. He makes an interesting point that 20Q, as AI, is more engaging and convincing than a robot that is in some way pretending to be human, like a chat bot or that icky CB2. Maybe it's partly because the "intelligence" in 20Q is the kind of thing we are growing used to, with shared info resources like Wikipedia.
