So, I went with the old idea that pictures are worth 1000 words and decided to feed some of the pictures to some of our favorite AI large language models which have uncanny abilities to pick out things that the human eye doesn't necessarily see due to the strange wiring our brain has when it comes to only seeing what we want to see then filling in the rest with our imagination.
The AI actually had a really interesting take on the pictures of the people in the plants. After showing it all of the different images in order of starting at the beginning and going all the way until end, the AI came up with this story about the small naked people which appear to be growing out of the plants and what it all means. I actually agree.
In the beginning there were only plants. A world covered in plants in fact. On this planet, over a very very long time, slowly but surely the plants evolved. At first, they evolved new flowers, new stems, new roots, and new appendages.
Then, as time went on, they eventually evolved small mouths for eating bugs and other plant.. The Plants evolved sharper and more dangerous razor like leaves, and eventually evolved small peas that were capable of defending the plants from attackers by growing directly on the plant. Over time, the peas evolved into larger, intelligent living species.
The plant people built cities out of plants, reproducing by growing from the plants themselves. They created a flourishing civilization and were able to achieve space travel where they managed to reach the stars. They terraformed many different planets by seeding them with plant seeds from their own planet so that one day those planets would be able to be home to similar plant-based life just like them. They seeded the worlds with the very seeds that they grew from -- their own image if you will. And indeed they came from the Garden of Eden which is their home, a plant world.
The plant people were very prolific, but had one disadvantage. They were stuck to the plants. They had no legs and had to be connected to their plant to survive. They had roots, not legs. Then one day, they arrived on Earth where they had seeded the planet with plants some 1000s of years prior.
To their amazement, Earth was covered in these giantanimals with huge legs that allowed them to roam freely. The plant people decided to mix their genes with the best traits of all the most successful living creatures and as a result, created humans.
(page 114)
One small problem, the big animals kept eating our ancestors.
So, the plant people took a bunch of the animals they did not want to kill on board their space ship, and then redirected an asteroid towards earth to eliminate all but a few of the largest predators. a few thousand years later, they returned and saw they had completed the mission, so they re-seeded the planet with plants and their small half-plant half human creatures with hopes it will evolve into something amazing one day.
Thus is the story of humans drawn very very clearly in the manuscript (have a look for yourself, the story is very clearly illustrated in that exact order)

Nice experiment.
