AI image generators make weird maps

It seems like the AIs need some geography lessons, but I suppose that’s not really fair because they were trained for more general image and art generation purposes. All of the imagery shown in this video was generated by DALL-E 2, except for the left-side World Forests map and the left-side World Deserts map, both of which were generated by Stable Diffusion. I put almost no effort into prompt engineering and kept it pretty simple. Prompts used:
world map of forests
a world map of forests
a map of forests in north america
a map of forests in australia
world map of deserts
a map of deserts in north america
a map of snow cover over the united states
a map of the united states covered by an ice sheet
a map of north america covered by an ice sheet
a map of the united states covered by an ice sheet
a map of mountains in north america
a map of major rivers in north america
a map of hurricane tracks for north america
a map of north american tornado tracks
a world map of volcanoes
a map of volcanoes in north america

I should mention that I didn't do any prompt engineering to try to make the maps any more or less geographically accurate. E.g. first map prompt was simply: "world map of forests"

This shows clearly that we should always make life-changing decisions based upon AI. (I made that first sentence up.)

This video was unexpectedly hilarious. 10/10

This video had me in stitches. I can't believe you narrated this without laughing omg!

0:30 That AI draws "North America" as just the USA because it knows 'Murica is best. Only countries that have landed a person on the moon can call themselves real countries. The 'Murica on the right at 1:54 further show's the AI's correct and based views on the USA. On a serious note, what fascinates me most is what the AI does with text and titles. It looks like a foreign language that is long lost.

im 90% sure there told not to have actual text to avoid copyright/defamation by accidentally labeling countries and people

This is one of the funniest videos i’ve ever seen. Love your content!

[@geogviz]

Yay! Thank you!

Thanks for the good laugh! Love the patriotic ice sheet.

These maps will become reality upon the coming of the technological singularity.
