Ahh, neat application of it. Explains the somewhat dubious combinations I was seeing.
Forest + fire = smoke Mud + water = swamp Swamp + plant = Venus Flytrap Okay, okay. Venus Flytrap + Smoke = smoke detector

Tree + Water = river was also pretty baffling. Unfortunate. I can see the appeal of using an LLM for this but the results are pretty mediocre.
Meh, what would be your great response to Tree + Water? A human can only generate a small fraction of the combinations and would have a hard time coming up with most combinations which are already nonsensical. What is your non-disappointing idea for, idk, Tears + Pottery (AI: Bowl) or Money + Salt Lick (AI: Cow) or Skull + Lake (AI: Loch Ness) or Dracula + Pirate (AI: Vampirate) or Curse + Money (AI: Debt)? Now do th…
I couldn't find any information but does this use some kind of LLM to derive the combinations from? It makes a request to the backend every time you combine items which sometimes takes >500ms, and also supports some really wild combinations that I highly doubt someone has taken the time to come up with. It would also explain why the icons are emoji's, it would be fairly trivial to ask ChatGPT to give you the result o…
This might explain how I got “Super volcano” and “Supervolcano”
items = () => [...document.querySelectorAll('.items div.item')]
show = (elt) => elt.style.display=''
hide = (elt) => elt.style.display='none'
search = (text) => (items().forEach(show), items().filter(e => !e.innerText.toLowerCase().includes(text.toLowerCase())).forEach(hide))
inputElt = document.createElement('input'); inputElt.type='text';
document.querySelector('.sidebar').prepend(inputElt)
function handle(e) { search(e.target.value) }
inputElt.addEventListener('input', handle)This little game is too entertaining. I hope the author open sources it, or writes a technical blog post on how it's implemented.

Addition won't work for things that depend on the order of operations. If salt + water is ocean and water + fire is steam, what's salt + water + fire? Is it salt + steam or ocean + fire? Associativity and commutivity in vector addition doesn't translate well to semantic meaning. Extrapolating your example, it'd also mean: v_king - v_queen ~= v_father - v_mother v_king - v_royalty ~= v_father - v_parent v_king - v_fat…
Isn't the reason for lack of associativity/commutivity is that you're doing operations (addition/subtraction) that have them, and then snapping the result to the closest one of fixed number of points in your output dictionary? The addition is fine, loss of information is in the final conversion.
But I'd be surprised if either of those were the primary reason. The words "sea" and "ocean" are different vectors but they'll be very close to each other. salt + water = sea and salt + water = ocean both sound correct to me so the problem is more about whether the v_salt + v_water can even get to the vicinity of either v_sea or v_ocean.
