I've also thought about creating a Codenames bot: what if we could use semantic similarity to batch words together? Surely, this can be done using a prebuilt embedding model and clustering! After some failed experiments - it performed worse than I thought it will - I've googled the subject, and... it turns out there's a whole paper about ML and codenames :) https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.05885 (Playing Codenames with Language Graphs and Word Embeddings) - fun to read

I was playing a bit with embeddings in 2021. I'd played codenames online with friends in lockdown and we often had interesting boards we'd talk about, so when I saw papers like this (https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.05885) I looked into the topic. I found the suggested clues were very good, and there were some 'clue scoring' functions which correlated with the actual best spymasters. Wasn't scientifically rigorous as OPs post, but I would say it was good.
