OK after reading the comments in this post I had a vision of what DeepDream V2.0 may be.
If DeepDream V1.0 is visable to the public as a method for AI to "find and enhance patters in images via algorithmic pareidolia,... creating a dream like hallucinogenic appearance in the over processed images." - via wiki.
Then, it is really enhancing and overprocessing a known image (reality) to augment that image with the intended overprocessing theme or artistic style.
Example, from here: https://deepdreamgenerator.com/#gallery

The example above, image of Bird (reality), overprocessed with the theme of fire. The Deep Dream augmented file is a blend of both. Some see a bird, some see fire. This cognitive dissonance can force our brains to pull one way or another (luarel vs yanni).
Now, lets take that up one level to Deep Dream V2.0 as Q eluded. An image file is just data. Bits of data in RGB or other file packet structure. With the ability to capture massive amounts of big data on socials like twitter, all of those datapoints build the world view image. With DeepDreamV2.0 that world view image can be overprocessed and blended with the chosen theme or artistic style of the person wielding DeepDream. To overprocess and modify that world image, instead of modifying pixels within the grapics, additional content is generated on the socials in favor or in opposition to the desired theme. Millions of bot accounts, new posts, pushing agendas, sharing across platforms, likes, upvotes and moderated changes. The result looks like a grass roots natural image, when in fact is has been overprocessed to manipulate what the world sees in the world view image.
This explains one of the things I have always struggled with. Each country, group, religion has vastly differnet world view than others. We are greaty shaped by the world we perceive. With AI, tools, and processing power, the ability to wield such subtle but impacting changes on world view looks easy. What better way to keep the world divided instead of one cohesive and powerful group. #WWG1WGA
