basically same strategy as semantle #14, thought in terms of co-occurrence in similar documents. again ran into a mild issue with polysemous words but now that i know to look for it it's manageable

today i tried thinking a lot more about what words were likely to occur in similar positions in similar documents in word2vec’s training set and that worked a lot better than trying to use raw semantic distance only

the main mental move i'm doing is something like maintaining a "light grip" on what i think the word is "about." like too tight a grip and i don't move far away enough, too loose a grip and there are too many options where to go next

also slowly developing more of an intuition for what the similarity numbers mean. below 15 or so is incredibly noisy, 25ish is roughly when you're really getting somewhere it seems like?

game state at the end. initially i got words that seemed like they could be descriptions of skin, then got to "feathery" on a whim and went for bird words

It's interesting trying to apply like, 20Q strategies like "animal, vegetable, mineral" but since the word isn't always a noun you also have to figure out like, the "level of abstraction" ?
