>Show it a picture of a trailer park somewhere in Kansas (exclude any signs with the trailer park name and location) and I’ll bet the model only manages to guess the state correctly.
This isn't really a criticism though. The photo needs to contain sufficient information for a guess to be possible. Photos contain a huge amount of information, much more than people realize unless they're geoguessr pros, but there isn't a guarantee that a random image of a trailer park could be pinpointed.
Even if, in theory, we mapped every inch of the earth and then checked against that data, all it would take is a team of bulldozers and that information is out of date. Maybe in the future we have constantly updated feeds of the entire planet, but... hopefully not!
