summary
Builds an iOS then Mac app that screenshots HQ Trivia, uses Apple’s Vision framework to find text and tesseract for OCR, then automates web searches via a Safari webview after failing with Bing and the Google API; experiments with a network WebSocket feed and an ASCII audience tally; reports about 70–80% accuracy on solvable questions, outlines pitfalls (red herrings, extremes, image questions), and still has not won a game.
