For You and Your Friends | Ultimately impartial choice generator

Did you ever have that weird feeling in your stomach when asked to pick an entry from a list of options, and to do it absolutely randomly?

It is actually a medical fact that many people feel anxious when faced with a choice that needs to be made open-mindedly and impartially. We are rational creatures, and our brain demands that any choice we make is rationally justified. Ironically, this is particularly the case for people with high levels of personal responsibility, as they can’t help but keep questioning themselves whether this or that choice would be impartial enough if they decide to go for it (and as it stands, neither would).

It is also a psychological fact that our choices are affected by a variety of cognitive biases and our past experiences. Most people are reluctant to choose the first or the last entry in the list, or repeat the same entry. A lot would prefer the entry that looks familiar to the one they are seeing for the first time. All of that can hardly provide for a truly random, fair choice.

AI engines, surprisingly, are subject to the same biases, as they are based on our own knowledge and approaches to choices.

So, ultimately, the choices that we make in life, however hard we try to be impartial and random, are heavily affected by our human nature.

Entropy On Tap offers you the ultimately impartial choice generator, the split-second choice. Based on our cryptographically secure random number generator, it guarantees that any choice it makes is 100% random. Entropy On Tap pulls entropy from a selection of unpredictable, volatile sources – webcams, weather radars, microphones – to guarantee the quality of the random data it generates.

Sometimes the best way to make a choice is to ask your friend. But when the choice needs to be 100% impartial and random, your friend is EoT.
