got it in 32! I had a very sudden jump on my penultimate guess, rot13:

ayyy nice. in retrospect i didn't "jump around wordspace" anywhere near enough in the beginning and got way too anchored on my first few guesses

yeah I was noticing this too; the way you have to jump to completely different regions of concept space felt antithetical to how, like, thinking works fundamentally😅

yeah there's some really unintuitive word2vec distances. to the extent that it's roughly about like "substitutability" you might argue that those two words don't really appear in similar places in similar documents, maybe???

yeah that shit is noisy af tbh
114. Pretty frustrating to dance around in the general semantic space for dozens of guesses.

today's was harder for me too (which I think makes sense given the answer), took 60. I went through like 15 words in the top 1000 before getting it
