It usually works out pretty well with native speakers not familiar with the term. They usually have a moment with a blank stare thinking "what the hell is an acoustic bike?" and then realize all at once with a smirk.

As for your second question, acoustic becomes a good classification when talking to a group where electric bikes are the default, just like electric becomes a good classification where pure pedal bikes are the default. In a group where ebikes are the default they might assume you're talking about throttle type if you say analog, or a pedal assist bike if you said manual. It started as a joke and became a useful term.

I think people make games for a video on how these things work. Some of the files used in previous tournaments are available to play around with.

Curious which man made image was most likely to be classified as ai generated

Have you checked out shadows of doubt? I had a ton of fun with it. Just waiting for some more updates.
