Agree, at times it is so sloppy that it’s not clear what’s being written.

#33Wow, it can do ODEs. Pretty awesome.

Yes - it's fun that its a bit messy, but it also seems to write the same letter in very different ways in the same session. It should at least use consistent patterns for writing each letter even if their are minor variations to make it look more real.

#35This is really fun. Multiple questions seem to yield a blank page, does this mean it's hugged to death, or are my questions too difficult? :)
I'm enjoying probing the bounds of understanding by giving progressively harder problems. It found the roots of a cubic, and proved sqrt(2) and pi were irrational.
Too difficult to read the handwriting, and I'm curious about "how it works". All in all, a fantastic demo.

#36Nice tool! I like the human like handwriting, but I'd prefer a more adult one. Writing the denominator first looks weird to me, same as writing the square root symbol after what's under it.
Looks like my 5 year old's handwriting. Sometimes I actually have no idea what it was writing. Plus the text was overlapping at times
It looks like the handwriting of a 5 year old or a software engineer

#37The handwriting really goes out of the window with a query like
> what is the derivative of e^-x?
It does a good job, but man is it hard to read

#38this is extremely cool and useful.

#39It looks like it was trained on someone's years of teaching math to kids and a collection of all of the handwriting they've done. Looks like, but not sure if it is.

#40For anyone trying this on desktop if you make the window tiny the boldness, spacing, and overall readability becomes waaay better than when you have a large window.
