I don't find many of these transitions very appealing. Sweet to harmony? Seems a stretch. Nightjar to chirring to bombylious? Might as well be gobbledygook.

  It said the path between “double lock” and “dislodge” was a tortured 10 word chain, it seems like you could get there much faster “Double lock” > “clasp” > “grab” > “dislodge” It’s just a quick example, but I think it follows their “rough synonym“ style connections, and it’s not less reasonable than the examples. To me, it feels like this project is kind of hampered by not having a rigorous definition of what is allowable, and then mixing in the sort of random effects of an LLM

    Good points. The main limiter is often what words happen to surface as the top 17 connections, or in those random examples when there's a plural or conjugation. Since this is getting eyeballs here, I will look for some less tortured long-paths to add as examples.

    A smaller trainable set would be a dictionary, and only linking the terms as expressed in the definition, possibly with substitutions. You'd miss more abstract jumps, but the initial walks would be tractable. (It is a game best played with a grandparent's pre-war dictionary before tea-time)

  You are right. I replaced it with new paths that are +1 longer. These are actual paths from our game now.
