Quick, Draw! is an online guessing game developed and published by Google that challenges players to draw a picture of an object or idea and then uses a neural network artificial intelligence to guess what the drawings represent. [2] [3] [4] The AI learns from each drawing, improving its ability to guess correctly in the future. [3] The game is similar to Pictionary in that the player only has a limited time to draw (20 seconds). [2] The concepts that it guesses can be simple, like 'foot', or more complicated, like 'animal migration'. [4]

Gameplay

In a game of Quick, Draw!, there are six rounds. During each round, the player is given 20 seconds to draw a random prompt selected from the game's database whilst the artificial intelligence attempts to guess the drawing, similar to a game of Pictionary. A round ends either when the artificial intelligence successfully guesses the drawing or the player runs out of time.[ citation needed]

At the end of a Quick, Draw! game, the player is given their drawings and results for each round. They can also view the artificial intelligence's comparisons of their work with other player-given drawings, before either quitting or replaying.
