In a world increasingly dominated by #AI -generated images, the rare and valued thing will be expressive art—driven by emotion, expressed through composition, conceived by the human mind, and carried out by the human hand.

Unfortunately, for illustrators with career ambitions, #AI makes purely illustrative objectives as easy as providing a few parameters.

Destroying Australia's biodiversity
"The decisions of our political leaders, who continue to approve fossil fuel project expansions and widespread land clearing and habitat destruction, are coming home to roost in ever more predictable, catastrophic and emotionally confronting ways. "
"There is a tragic inevitability about what ... bats – and, indeed, countless other species – confront in this “new normal”. If we continue to destroy their habitats, and politicians wave through yet more coal and gas approvals, even more mass mortality events could be a matter of when, not if."
"There was a time when the dire potential consequences of climate change and environmental destruction were warnings, calls from scientists and experts for increased and urgent action. Now an unsettling possibility feels like a disturbing reality...We must change course."

"Manufactured risks are the product of human activity." Ulrich Beck
" A "risk society"
is a sociological concept describing a stage of modernity where society is increasingly defined by and organized around managing the hazards and insecurities it has produced itself through modernization and industrialization.Self-produced risks: The primary source of risk is not nature, but human actions and the unintended consequences of modernization itself.
Individualization: Individuals are increasingly forced to confront these risks personally, with a greater emphasis on individual choice and responsibility in the face of larger, systemic problems
Ulrich Beck defines it as "a systematic way of dealing with hazards and insecurities induced and introduced by modernisation itself". "
>>
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_society" The Study of Existential Risk
frames the rises and falls of civilisation around the idea of the “Goliath”, a hierarchy that dominates labour and energy through coercion and violence.""Our research shows how there are nascent attempts to embed citizens into decision making by re-plumbing democracy, flattening hierarchies and constructing more dynamic feedback loops that have real consequence."
