Judgement: For this assignment, I chose a heat map displaying the US National Gas Prices. This heat map provides an interactive visualization of the different gas prices split up into small regions throughout the United States, giving you a regional comparison of prices by color key. I do not think this visualization was AI-generated, as this map appears to be data-driven and built with older software technologies that AI would not typically use. Everything on this website appears to follow human engineering practices while being simplistic.
