Revealed: What AI thinks the Olympic teams from 40 nations look like - with shocking results

If you were asked to picture an Australian Olympian, swimmer Emma McKeon, cyclist Grace Brown, or equestrian Chris Burton might spring to mind. But ask the same question to an AI bot, and the answer is very different. Amid the Olympic excitement, researchers from Edith Cowan University asked the AI-driven image generation platform, Midjourney, to create images of the Olympic teams from 40 nations. Bizarrely, the AI tool depicts the Australian team with kangaroo bodies and koala heads, while the Greek team is depicted wearing ancient armour. So, what do you think of AI's depiction of your favourite team?
