    I Asked AI What Europeans Think Americans From Every Single State Look Like, And The Results Are Just Plain Mean
    Tue, 11 July 2023 at 3:17 pm GMT-5·2-min read
    Here at BuzzFeed, we are constantly freaking out about what Europeans hate and love about Americans. That's why I asked AI, state by state, what Europeans REALLY think Americans from all 50 states look like. The results may, well, surprise you. Let's get started:
