This is what the 'average person' from Oxfordshire looks like - according to AI.

Generated images show how people from a selection of UK counties look.

Londoners are trendy and cool - while Somerset folk look more bohemian.

And those from Oxfordshire are portrayed as young and urbane - compared to Norfolk residents who are seen as older and rural.

The images were made by film editor Duncan Thomsen, 53.

Oxford Mail:

He said: "All counties have personality.

"They are their likes and quirks. I wanted to see if I could turn that personality into people and reflect that into photography."

AI responds to prompts and commands set by the user and creates pictures by referencing billions of images online.

Duncan, from Brighton, used the software Midjourney, through the application Discord.

He typed in certain phrases to achieve the results.

For example, for Tyne and Wear Duncan typed in 'Tyne and Wear as a portrait characterised by their clothes, haircuts and personalities'.

And he added 'social, outgoing and proud of local roots, interests music, art and football, quicks never turn down a night out with friends'.

Duncan said: "Somerset is fun because I like the colour and the beard on the man - it made me laugh.

"I also liked the Scottish and the Welsh, because they are very characterful."

Duncan added that the opportunities with AI are endless.

And he believes the software will be used more and more in everyday life as time goes on.

He said: "I got an eye for image through my day job and have been fortunate to have worked with some really great people.

"It's allowed me to cross-reference everything I've worked on and explore my imagination without limits, and this is the result."
