For these who don't feel like looking it up: Baby near birth is given a tape by Inmendham (one of contemporary antinatalist philosophers) which shows the bad experiences in baby's life not shown by the DNA's "bad experiences" tape. Due to horrors the baby would experience if born, it decides not to be, causing the DNA to go mad, to the joy of Inmendham.

also i think partly made with ai.

I don't uh agree with the theme was just curious and decided to copy parts of text i found from artstation..

Thanks for dropping the description, was stupid of me not to include it. Yes, it's done with the help of Stable Diffusion.

I looked up "Inmendham" and it looks like some kind of antinatalism thing?

He is a known antinatalist philosopher, like David Benatar.

It's about antinatalism yeah. The image should be more or less easy to understand. Baby near birth sees its life in advance, the horrors it would experience and decides not to be born.

I think AI is a great tool but I wish it was part of the rules that it had to be tagged or included in the title. I kinda wanna avoid AI works as someone who wants to learn from others.

I wouldn't mind it but if I read the rules correctly, AI art is forbidden here, understandably. So such tag is perhaps unnecessary. The reason this is allowed here (I contacted admins regarding permission) is because it's not art done entirely by the AI, in fact far from it, as the process video shows. It has an educational value, the exact process is novel and shows to others how AI can be used indeed as a tool, where you are entirely in control of where the image goes.

The baby is shown a play by play of its potential life and its decided it doesn't want to be born?

Yes, it sees its life in advance, the extremes of the bad stuff in particular (not shown by the evil DNA molecule), and due to the severity of these bad experiences, it makes a decision not to be born.
