I keep seeing a lot of writers and youtubers still using #AI images to illustrate #solarpunk - even Aeon in their latest article did so. Could I ask you to help spread https://storyseedlibrary.org/ around? If you know a #sustainability / #climate creator who might want to talk about the movement, could you share the Library with them? All SSL #art is human-made, Creative Commons (some even for commercial use) and translated to multiple languages! #illustration #climateChange #futurism #hopepunk

@alxd@writing.exchange We are making talks as @tunubesecamirio@masto.es , and when the public is teenager we talk about solarpunk. Now, we are gonna use Story Seed Library as resource to exemplify what is Solarpunk.

@alxd@writing.exchange I was just looking at https://storyseedlibrary.org/art/jacob-coffin-cargo-airship-docked/ and started wondering if the idea of solar-powered airships was explored (in the solarpunk community or engineering, even?). Do you know if this is a "thing"?

@alxd@writing.exchange Using AI, one of the most anti-green and anti-human technologies of our time, to generate images for an inherently green and human oriented genre is wild to me. How are some people this out of touch?

@alxd@writing.exchange using ai generated images to represent solarpunk is ironic to say the least
