No idea why they all have big V8 engines in

That DALL-E 3 generative engine seems to be obsessed with the V8.  I had enough trouble getting a radial into an engine bay a few pages back.  Even specifically asking for a four cylinder engine weeks later, I still get this V8 concoction that I really don't want to go hunting where a pipe or hose leak is!

Shouldn't complain though, as using the very same API direct from OpenAI who develop it, its use gets restricted behind a paywall.  But now through Microsoft, even an ancient Microsoft account gets free unlimited use.  I still have my original Hotmail account from 25+ years ago getting daft images like this out of the thing  (except I bet you wish I couldn't) :

Ever get that feeling you're in the wrong job?  No?  Ok, it's just me then

I've no idea how these got past the filter sensor block thing.  But it was fun goading it and watching it falter 😁

WOW that's the super-rare two-cylinder Z1 with front drum brake! Not only that, the rear basket was a Japanese market only option.  Well I never.

Spiderman seen out and about, not quite as surprising though as he did live in digs at Bletchley for a short while after his divorce from Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan from M*A*S*H
