AI and computer assistance in building a Ski mountain? Would it be better then a real person? When and Where will It first be used?

We Asked an Artificial Intelligence to Create 5 Resort Maps—Which One Would You Ski?

Look, robots are going to put us all out of work, so we may as well check out what the ski areas they build for us will look like.

With a AI computer not optimized for Ski mountain construction or ski mountain design it came out with pretty interesting results. Even included a few mountain features not originally inputted as source material. I would like to know if the AI had any free reign internet connection to search for more input material to consider for final mountain outputs.

The last mountain it generated is a funny hybrid traverse/cross country ski mountain from the looks of it. Needs to be run with a little more optimized source code for ski mountains and apply it to a real mountain somewhere that could be a future home see what it comes up with.

I know which I would NOT ski in. Next to the last has multiple ”trails” right next to each other. It may count as distinct trails, but they’ll ski exactly the same. Why bother?

If that’s what the “AI” can do, I’d stay as far away as I possibly can.

Some have trails that start in the middle of a slope, no other trails or lifts to get to them. Some start coming out of trees with nothing leading into the trees. So hopefully this is never used!

Still better than some SE group plans I've seen

i don't even know how to read those.
