Sounds like it should exist if there’s enough demand. What a wild world to live in.

There IS a night train, just not the one in the picture (which is clearly AI).
So the “Northern lights train” exist and the real booking site is even linked in the AI article. But it’s a normal train looking nothing like the one in the picture and the seats definitely doesn’t recline to “face the night sky” lol.
The thing is, aurora’s don’t look like the pictures and videos we see online.
Guess we should send our Glacier Express trains up to a tour of Narvik!
For the avoidance of doubt the rail network is so poor, that they won’t build a decent motorway between Oslo and Trondheim because no one would then take the train. So the flight between Trondheim and Oslo is one of the most popular routes in Europe.
That train screams AI everywhere.
Very similarly, just a week or two ago, Finland’s national broadcasting company made a story about AI-generated images of things that were claimed to be real in Finland, including “warming posts” for dogs on the street, school buildings with humongous windows (much like in that train there) and *moss roofs*, etc.
The source was tracked to a third world country where the income for getting enough attention on AI slop could be enough to boost someone’s quality of living in a considerable way.
I just wonder how many of these claims are taken as truths out there, and with what results.
The other day a British tourist asked me where to find a specific location in my city with a fantastical Christmas market and scenic view. She showed me the image. It was AI. She refused to believe it when I told her and got really upset, asked to speak to my manager who, guess what, told her the exact same thing. Then she stormed off. Rumour has it she’s still searching for the location
we are cooked
