Fake Suffolk town names appear on AI map as National Highways issues warning
“Among the mistakes identified were several place names that do not exist, including "Ehoswelt", "Thurston Newtown" and "Nemford".”
What happened
A parish council near Ipswich shared a roadworks diversion map, believed to be AI-generated, that carried official logos and included villages called Ehoswelt, Thurston Newtown and Nemford, none of which exist. National Highways confirmed it did not make the map and told drivers to use its official channels.
