Some friends of mine are having a laugh about what might happen on my #CrossBorderRail SE Europe trip... and put some prompts into an AI image generator

And this is what came out! 😂

I am not about to start smoking, but this is really fun

And for the record I don't intend to flee border guards on the Birdy!

@jon seems like the AI has a strong negative image of what "crossing a border" means

@frederik I think my friends might have given especially negative prompts 🙂 Don't draw too many conclusions!

@frederik @jon Maybe following the current news

Why are asylum seekers pushing bicycles to the border?

Many images of asylum seekers entering Finland show them pushing bicycles towards the border, even though crossings both by bike and on foot have been banned.

@PTM @frederik No, they know I have a bike with me on my #CrossBorderRail projects. So that was in the prompt for sure!

Artificial Intelligence? Artificial Dumbass more like - I wouldn't trust it to design a bicycle I could pedal... Nor a helicopter, for that matter.
