Are You Good at Being Random? | Attempting to Fake Randomness

[@sheepisthename]

These videos have so much effort and skill put into them, if you targeted a more broad niche - this channel could go viral! Good job man.

Babe wake up, Minding The Data just posted!

[@autismolink9356]

FYI Spotify needed to change its‘ „shuffle song“ feature from truly random, to an algorithm which mimicked randomness. Since it got too many complaints, that the shuffle didn‘t feel random enough.

[@vrnvorona]

Except it wasn't spotify but iTunes, and it was far before spotify existed.

[@autismolink9356]

@@vrnvorona Spotify does it aswell

[@vrnvorona]

@@autismolink9356 because everyone does. literally. all "shuffle" methods are pseudo-random to prevent illusion of not-randomness.

Started gambling a few years back which is how I found you vids, took a stat class recently and the two combined have made probabilities so interesting to me. Your videos have only increased that! Great work and please keep it up for us more lazy but still interested people!

[@jayakrishnamurthy8870]

What's the way

[@jaimalani6146]

Man! Why you stopped? We really need more videos from you

[@soejrd24978]

Ohh yess! I love your channel/uploads dude! Hope you don't confine yourself to one topic, but make whatever you want to make.

[@SuperZebezian]

Loved the video! It was very well-constructed and I think you did a great job of showing some of the discrepancies between human- and computer-generated "randomness." Here is a suggestion for future videos: The images of the heads and tails coins were difficult for me to quickly distinguish. I had to look closely at them when trying to tell the difference. If you are making a video in the future that has a similar situation where two or more items are close together but very visually similar, consider coming up with some way to graphically represent those items that allows them to be quickly distinguished by the audience. Still, though, like I said: I loved the video!

[@mindingthedata4218]

Appreciate the suggestion! Thanks for watching :)

[@Errichto]

So what metrics were most useful? Is anything better than the longest run?

[@paytonrodger4669]

Your videos are so cool and informative. I love the amount of detail you go into while also keeping it basic enough to understand. Really insightful work, good job!

[@dot.4069]

finally!!! a new video!! Great to see you again

[@zacharylyman504]

These videos keep getting better and better...

[@mindingthedata4218]

Thank you so much :)

[@Brecherbernd]

I always enjoy your vids, glad youre back

[@nikvas_]

Man i love your videos!

[@mindingthedata4218]

Thank you so much!

[@RealLagu]

nice to see a new video from you

[@questienick]

This is my favorite channel

[@daltonbough3302]

Really glad to see videos from you

[@rakshitrohan9136]

Damn, amazing research.

[@JamystroV2]

that's for the programming course been meaning to learn python for a while!

[@felipediniz2048]

Can you go over on some PCA analysis to know which metrics are more useful, and if you could get a similar prediction with a smaller number of metrics?

[@WeGoToMars]

Welcome back!

[@oscarpetersson5324]

Truly Random 92.12%. I did know there have to be some streaks, but I really just typed it in myself. Still loved the video

[@VOMotion]

Awesome video

[@FebriyanaMuhammad]

I cant access the website

[@naxnusternann332]

Could you maybe put the website back on?

[@Cas_is_Cool]

Haven't you severely overfitted your model by having 1000 decision trees in your model? or did i not understand the model?

[@gang8bp138]

do you work for jim simons?

[@mindingthedata4218]

Dream job

[@naxnusternann332]

Awesome vid!

[@erick-llerenas]

Wow you are awesome!!

[@davisbarthen1142]

Awesome video!

[@charlesfowler4308]

Could you make the training data available so people could try making their own models

[@saginisagini2612]

@minding the data hey hello can you do a video on the math behind virtual football games

[@eli0uz]

The website is down :(

[@amiraalhasan2218]

Thank you!! very helpful and informative video🥰🥰. However, I tried using the link to check how random I am, but the link is not working ! and I visited your website, and the link was there, but it still didn't work.

[@Quantowski]

My personal input is random with 80% confidence :)

[@mindingthedata4218]

W 🏆

[@Quantowski]

@@mindingthedata4218 great video BTW. Any chance for at least a sequel to trading bot video?

[@mindingthedata4218]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :) I am definitely planning more stock market videos in the future

[@floriangrawe1955]

Mine is around that aswell haha. But if you know the tricks you can outplay the AI quite easily. Would be nice to be able to correct the AI, so it can learn from its mistakes. But very interesting video, thanks for being active again. Missed your videos!

[@floriangrawe1955]

"HTHHHTTHTTTHHTHTHHTTTHHHHHHHTHTHTTTTHHHHHTTHTHTTTH" This was my input i came up with. 85.29% haha

[@user-jd1cy9gp3q]

Good video!

[@doylemichael]

No validation set?

[@jackdwyer22]

another great video, facebook is shaking

[@petertroep9085]

Awesome a new video

[@shotx333]

Next crazy time or monopoly form evolution gaming pls.

[@marnopretorius9238]

Can you make video on andar bahar Or roulette red black game because I've seen in online casino has straight red or black back to back 18 time. Same in andar bahar game card comes andar Or bahar more then 15 times or 18 time does it that even possible??

[@gohluke]

the site doesnt work

[@Dropout-gr9gx]

My random "TH" got a 99% confidence: THTTTTTTHTTTHTHTHTHTHHHHHTHHTHHTHTHTHTHTTHTHTHTHTH Try get 100%

[@dineshc3121]

Bro the website didn't working

[@Lvlerience]

nice vid =)

[@mindingthedata4218]

Thanks so much :) Glad you enjoyed!

[@FizzyToni]

Yes, at least pseudorandom. I use google rng or my python code or similar

[@grizlethebear8652]

i am very random! I got 95.59% truly random.

[@sevir408]

pseudorandom function =/= truely random But sure, for this experiment it's good enough I guess...

[@wsdea]

Fooled it on my first two tries ! I guess it helps to spam my keyboard keys

[@John-Smlth]

I like randomness problems like this, it is one of the very few times I can make use of the 500 digits of pi I memorised as a kid... Starting with a little offset, then taking even values as heads, and odds as tails. Me, a human, is able to generate a very random sequence that easily fools even your intelligent bot.

[@eduardoxenofonte4004]

i faked a sequence and got 95% random and right after i put a random sequence and it got 52% towards human generated 💀💀💀

[@randomboii9166]

96% truly random first try before watching the vid

[@brickkid30]

I got robot 75% confidence

[@GabrielSilva-jn7cp]

This set of coin flips is predicted to be Truly Random Prediction Confidence: 97.06% Once you know the rules it's easy to fool the model

[@dunnperfect8567]

Let’s go first try and they are 92.75 confident that it is truly random

[@FizzyToni]

I was clicking keys on my keyboard and the software predicted correctly sequences being human made for the first two times with low confidence of 55ish %. But then on the next run it gave 99% confidence on my sequence being truly random. I guess it was somewhat random since I was just pressing keys arbitrarily but not truly random.

[@claw4120]

I beat your bot
