Utterly obsessed with the world of automotive. Sharing my view from behind the scenes (and behind my desk) as production editor at Drive.

@cameronwilson Absolutely no AI failure here. We created the image deliberately. A bit of a test to see how much attention our readers pay. Good to see there’s some folk are… on their toes.

@tonymdolan @cameronwilson Just remember your work always mattered to someone – that's why your role existed in the first place. It's nice to see this obvious plant got its time in the spotlight though. In the future, every foot will be world-famous for 15 minutes.

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

@tonymdolan @cameronwilson Far from it. A very mischievous team effort, hoping to bring some joy to everyone's day. How'd we do?

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

@cameronwilson Bit weird that you're so obsessed with feet Cameron, but I'm not here to kink shame – just to let you know that the entire Drive office has really enjoyed the reactions today. It's been a hoot!

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

@LordSoth123 @cameronwilson Good theory – but it was the boss who shopped the image.

I've ummed and ahhed about buying a VF Commodore for a vey long time, but finally it looks like I've found one in my budget https://t.co/1Mr9HAQGkj

Gotta wonder why brands spend millions of dollars on branding, only to roll out black badges affixed to black trim panels, rendering them invisible. Opel, care to explain?

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

The new Triton looks tough, and has fixed its awkward short wheelbase proportions, but will the car at its core be good enough? https://t.co/9QBlz2nE1s

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

So great to be able to finally reveal the winner of 2023 Drive Car of the Year. Months of worth from an amazing team at Drive to bring this to life! https://t.co/TkxJCmgeLx

Upcoming Lotus electric sedan spied on a tow truck in the Arctic – and I reckon it'll look pretty good once the wrap comes off https://t.co/S8b9paMXID

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

The 2023 Porsche 911 Dakar is kinda ridiculous, but hopefully at least some of them get used like this and not just mothballed as investments: drive https://t.co/IS4lYGzLIG

@CollieScott It’s the ’75 X5 for me. It’s everything good about BMW design of the era in a car we didn’t know we needed.

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

AI makes me more than a little nervous, but then these look pretty neat so it’s hard to be mad at them.

[Alex Grant @alexgrantuk]

I fell into an AI rabbit hole about 20 minutes ago, asking it to render classic SUVs that never were. Here’s a ‘55 Merc GLE, a ‘65 Porsche Cayenne, ‘75 BMW X5 and a ‘90 Audi Q7. Quite frightening how quickly this is improving.

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

It really comes as no surprise, but the Ineos Grenadier looks pretty cool as a dual-cab ute. https://t.co/5z3wJeoygJ

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

As a concept, this looks pretty neat. Hopefully the production version doesn't stray too far: India’s Tata Motors reveals next-generation Sierra electric SUV https://t.co/hTvL8uuqwp

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

This looks pretty cool. Hopefully the production version doesn't stray too far: Suzuki EVX concept revealed, previews future electric model https://t.co/yLSes8b7Wq

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

This does look pretty cool, but I reckon my lottery-win garage probably still has an SL in it: 2023 Mercedes-AMG GT coupe breaks cover early https://t.co/fIonmkZFRP

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

It feels like Mazda flatly refuses to conform at times, like adding a rotary engine in as a range extender to the MX-30, instead of opting for a version of the CX-60 PHEV hardware. https://t.co/GYTc665TCH

[Kez Casey @kez_casey]

After a pretty bold first generation, Hyundai has managed to keep things interesting for the next Kona, due in Australia next year https://t.co/OVi6OY3tey
