Wow! I thought of Steve Davis and it correctly guessed my character. I’d say that was just a fluke.

He got mine but it took 2 tries.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

This thing is scary.
It asked me 19 questions, and I gave it maybe 4 yesses and 15 nos. It didn't seem to be focussing in on anything in particular. As far as I can tell, the only thing it knew about my character is that he is a British adult male who works on TV.
Then out of nowhere, the right answer comes up.
I really have no idea how that could have happened.
Why did the vector cross the road?
It wanted to be normal.

Right twice so far. Good fun!

I think of George Cantor
And in the second round it gives Kurt Gödel
Quite close
I guess we have different classificasion of mathematicians into scientists or nonscientists

I don't think they have Eisenstein in there. Questions kept repeating which meant they reached the end of branch in their tree.
"In the real world, this would be a problem. But in mathematics, we can just define a place where this problem doesn't exist. So we'll go ahead and do that now..."

I found this → Guess The Number.
If two or more thoughts intersect with each other, then there has to be a point.
