The idea is that AI is coming to save us instead of kill us. The original images were generated in 2022 with locally run Stable Diffusion. I have continued to use the original primitive generations as the style reference for the subsequent versions. Creating twin characters whenever the frame has a horizontal aspect ratio was a very common error with the early AI, but I decided to run with it and make it be a motif in the piece.
