It couldn't guess my aircraft carrier. The reason: Other people draw aircrafts instead.

For reference, here's my carrier

People really can't draw hospitals either. Not one of them looks like a real hospital (because what does a hospital look like. You know one if you see one but it's the people not the buildings).

The drawings at best look like churches (a building with a cross on top), but most just have giant crosses on the side.


Disagree - I recognize hospitals by the brutalist architecture and the huge ventilation pipes.

I guess if I was trying to doodle one, I'd do something like this: http://med-fom-emerg.sites.olt.ubc.ca/files/2012/06/surrey.j...

A carport with ambulances parked in front.


Yeah, I got the same problem. I drew an aircraft carrier similar to yours. Google guessed "cruise ship" and "submarine" because it was comparing my drawing to drawings of airplanes.

I'm also amused that one of the aircraft carriers has wheels :)

It sounds reasonable to call the Crawler-Transporter [1] a spacecraft carrier. From there it's not a big jump to wheeled aircraft carriers

But I'm probably giving people too much credit here.

That's a sad looking crocodile


Yeah, for me it was "streetlight"; everyone else drew traffic lights.


Most people probably ran out of time when drawing the carrier


Those planes start to devolve into banana skins as you go down the page
