Wolfram Alpha has already proven that it has a sense of humor, but does the computational knowledge engine have a sense of romance? As these love-themed Easter eggs show, the answer is “yes.”
Whether you want to view romance-related quotes, discover what computational knowledge engines love, or find out more about the daisy petal method of affection determination, good old WA has the answer.
So grab your sweetheart and click through the gallery below to see the amusing Easter eggs that can be found on the special search engine. Be sure to let us know in the comments which ones made your heart beat faster.
1. Will you be my Valentine?
It seems if you're at a loss this Feb 14, you can always ask Wolfram Alpha to be your Valentine.
2. What do men want?
The same question can also be asked of the fairer sex, and despite expectations otherwise, the answer is, in fact, the same.
3. Tell me I'm pretty
Great for when you need a confidence boost. Just try not to over-think that smiley face: "Does it really mean it? What's with the big grin? Is that sarcasm? Does my butt look big in this?"
4. I love you
Is it just us, or does ol' WA come across as little pompous here? Assured? Mutual? Sounds more like an insurance plan than passion.
5. Does he/she/it love me?
At least this one ends on a positive note. Although perhaps not for the person that wants to know if "it" loves them. We're not sure that's ever going to lead to a happy ending.
6. Are you in love?
Aw! Wolfy and the Internet in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!
7. Am I in love?
An ominous answer that sounds like it should be followed by, "Because if you're not, then you're just wasting your life. Look at your sister, she's already married, has a nice house, two wonderful children..."
8. What the world needs now....
You just know that song is going to be stuck in your head all day. Such is the infectious nature of Bacharach, just reading lyrics is enough to infiltrate your brain.
9. All is fair...
We'd add Parcheesi to that list, but then, that's just us.
10. What is love?
Wolfram Alpha is ever-lovin' the Internet in the first of three surprise answers to this passion-themed puzzler.
11. What is love?
Perhaps not one for the Valentine's Day playlist then...
12. What is love?
And, finally, here's the cryptic non-answer from waistcoat-wearing 90s Eurodance star Haddaway.
