LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – A real estate website used an artificial intelligence image generator to create renderings of a “typical home” in all 50 states and the 30 largest cities in the U.S.
“There are two things people are commonly talking about in 2023: AI and the housing market,” Allstarhome.com wrote on its website. “We set out to test an AI generator to see what it would envision as a ‘typical home.’”
It used Midjourney to generate the homes. The prompt had details including “photorealistic” and “life-like,” and it provided the AI program with a specific camera and lens setting.
The website noted that “when designing for Arizona and Nevada, AI included historical architecture as it created a Spanish colonial-style home.”
When shown the images without any frame of reference, one local real estate professional said that the homes had the style of ones from Spanish Trails or Mountain’s Edge.
“AI is basically spot on with what a home may look like in Las Vegas,” said Realtor Kaitlyn Frihse.

Most homes were spacious with two stories and had large, landscaped yards, painting the picture of idealistic homes in each state. But Allstarhome.com did add that at least one of the results would “have a glitch that would not make sense, like a bush on the roof or dimensions that did not match the front of the home.”

Accident investigators found several containers of alcohol and marijuana packages in and around a Ford F-150 that was being driven the wrong way on Interstate 15 last week, leading to a crash that killed an off-duty Metro police officer as well as the driver of the pickup.
A third motorist suffered substantial injuries and had to be flown from Moapa to University Medical Center in Las Vegas for treatment, according to a Nevada Highway Patrol news release issued Thursday.
The preliminary investigation conducted by the Highway Patrol’s Traffic Homicide Unit determined that a Ford F-150, driven by Fernando Jimenez Jimenez, 31, of Las Vegas, was southbound in the northbound lanes of I-15 when it collided head-on with a Toyota Corolla driven by Metropolitan Police Department officer Colton Pulsipher, 29, of Moapa.
Both drivers were pronounced dead on scene.
After the initial collision, a Freightliner tractor-trailer swerved to avoid the wreckage. A secondary crash involved a Honda CR-V striking the Ford after it overturned in the travel lanes. The driver of the Freightliner was unharmed and remained at the crash site to assist investigators. The driver of the Honda CR-V was flown to the University Medical Center with substantial injuries.
Toxicology results are pending at the Clark County coroner’s office, according to the Nevada Highway Patrol.
In the news release, the Nevada Highway Patrol urged all drivers to make responsible choices.
“Impaired driving remains a leading cause of preventable crashes and fatalities on our roadways,” the statement said. “Plan ahead and designate a sober driver, use a ride-share service, or arrange alternative transportation. Your choices can save lives, including your own. If you spot an impaired driver on our roadways, report it immediately.”
The Nevada Highway Patrol Southern Command has investigated 75 fatal crashes resulting in 84 fatalities in 2024.

An animal conservation group told a federal appeals court that the US Bureau of Land Management abused its discretion and wrongly interpreted federal law in its plans for future wild horse roundups in Utah and Nevada.
Friends of Animals appealed a district court’s ruling that allows BLM to amend its 10-year plans for horse management zones in Utah and Nevada, arguing the agency’s population control methods exceed the review directives in the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act. The US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia should set aside the plans entirely, according to the appellant brief filed …
