We asked Deepdream Generator to create an image that responds to an SF co-authored by 8x humans and Chatty G. Deepdream Generator was prompted to imagine it was 2049 and robots were sending the SF back in time to 2023. The training data was the, 'Dreams for Digital Spaces Speculative Fiction Postcard' also in this figshare project. Deep Dream created Image 1. We then prompted Deep Dream to regenerate the image, speculating that the planet survives the climate crisis to make Image 2.
