and another of that last one:

I was wondering about the Christian/Catholic overtones of some of these images (the types of robes, the use of the cross and the way the alter is depicted) and then saw that you used the term 'Mass' which is primarily a Roman Catholic term (maybe Anglicans use it too?). I'm curious what you'd get if you used the term 'service' or religious worship or something more 'generic'.

Garl Glittergold definitely has a buddha look to him!

I actually was very specifically using g those real-world religious words to get the devotional art the AI no doubt has in spades in their training data.

Also, it's aesthetic.

I gotta admit: garden gnome buddha could probably bring me back to religion in a moment of need.

Some further experimentation produced some uncomfortable images that I will not share below (turns out wicked ethnic and racist sterotypes can ne part of the training data, and rhey don't know how ro filter it all out yet), and I am intrigued with how this chatvot used my typos:

garden gnome rabbit laughing while reading from a scroll to a laughing garden gnome crowd in front of a golden starue of a laughing garden gnome, synagogue interior, high quality digital painting

garden gnome cantor laughing while leading praywr for a garden gnome crowd in front of a golden starue of a laughing garden gnome, middle eastern clorhing, mosque interior, high quality digital painting
