    Satellite images of the Swiss village of Blatten before (upper image) and after (lower) a huge landslide triggered by the global warming-induced collapse of an Alpine glacier.

    Thankfully there was just enough time to evacuate the village after a warning was issued.

    Is there a link to the source data? Where has a minimum driving age of 25? It seems to indicate British Columbia in Canada has an age of 25 but that is the minimum age for full qualified drivers accompanying a learner.

    I am actually struggling to see any area marked with colour assigned to 25. Wikipedia is the source used, by the way.

    Back to maps.

    I don't get that? AI used names that already exist?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,824 ✭✭✭✭josip


    The only part AI might have played a part in that map was "Copilot, find me a map of Europe with old names"

    No different to 30 years ago when your Uni supervisor/Prof would say "I reviewed your paper, put me down as co - author"

    I hate almost everything to do with AI in society at the moment. How it's marketed, over egged, under risked and used by so many idiots without thinking or questioning because it's "AI".

    Original names, I don't think the Romans ever used Lowlands.
