# lonely 20 questions, a game for people with no friends > Source: > Published: 2026-09-18 12:42:40+00:00 # lonely 20 questions you may be sad and have no friends but you can still play 20 questions. powered by machine learning, yes, yet uses no LLMs & costs nearly nothing to run. 1 common english noun, 20 questions, ask yes or no questions. loading... ### so how does this work? jev isn't an llm. it doesn't generate text. all it does is generate probabilities of choices i give it. so in context, for every user 10 random nouns are picked from wonder words, jev decides whats the easiest to guess and uses that word. every time you ask a question jev evaluates if question is yes or no, and if the question means you know what the word is. we send those results back to the user, and that's the game. if you want to try out jev yourself & you're a teenager check out [hackclub ai](https://ai.hackclub.com/) ! if you want to see more from me, sign up to my email list. i make mostly low level engineering projects, you can check out my stuff at [foxmoss.com/blog/](https://foxmoss.com/blog/) once a game finishes the full log of things sent to jev will show up here: reload the page to play again
