Using VQGAN+CLIP, I gave an AI a bunch of famous York landmarks, and had it visualise them. Here's a dream-like tour of the city.
As well as the imagenet_16384 dataset that most videos use to demonstrate the tool, I also used the sflckr dataset which was trained on images from Flickr; to give it more of a photo-realistic effect.

I didn't want to ruin the visual experience by putting text on the screen, so the timestamps are:
00:00 - York from above
00:09 - York Minster
00:18 - Shambles
00:27 - Rose Window
00:37 - Goodramgate
00:46 - Cliffords Tower
00:55 - Mansion House
01:04 - York Cathedral
01:14 - York Train Station
01:23 - River Foss
01:32 - Micklegate
01:41 - River Ouse
01:50 - York Dungeon
02:00 - National Railway Museum
02:08 - Theatre@41
02:16 - York Theatre Royal
02:25 - Shakespeare's Rose Theatre
02:34 - Castle Howard
02:42 - Jorvik Viking Center
