Outdraw.AI

What it does

outdraw.AI is a human vs AI party game for 2-6 people where players take turns drawing prompts in ways only humans can decipher, but an AI can't. In each round, one player chooses a prompt, such as cat or capitalism, and must draw it in a way that will fool an AI, but not their fellow humans! Once the drawing is done, all of the guessers, including the AI, will try to guess the word. If any humans guess right, and the AI is tricked, then humans win! But if the AI guesses right, then humans lose!

This game requires a collaborative effort between the participants to push their creativity and deviate from what the AI has already learned. Promoting its potential as a collaborative tool that seeks not to replace human creativity but to enhance it.

Powered by Gemini 1.5 Pro's advanced image recognition, the game processes each completed drawing through the Gemini API, which returns the most likely interpretations, seamlessly integrating into gameplay. Our project has made a significant global impact, sparking discussions about AI and creativity across both the arts and gaming sectors through international exhibitions. Since its debut at Civic Creative Base Tokyo, it has been featured at renowned events including Now Play This (London), Ars Electronica (Linz), and the Asian Art Museum (San Francisco), attracting attention from media outlets like The Guardian and IGN. Building on this success, an online playable version is set for Steam release in winter 2024.
