Since today is Easter Monday and since last week's Monday post, Hindu Gods Play Chess (March 2024), was another in a series on AI comics, let's continue with the religious theme.
Three weeks in a row make a trend. As everyone knows, 'The trend is your friend!'.
'Buddhists play chess'
AI Comic Factory
This image uses the '3D Render' style. In previous experiments I didn't like this style, because the results looked unrealistic. In this experiment the results look very realistic, even photo-like, especially the upper right panel. I'm guessing this is because the subjects are people and not the cartoon characters in previous experiments.
Another point worth noting is that the AI software has interpreted 'Buddhists' as 'Buddhist monks'. Of the dozen or so four-panel images I created, only 10% of the panels showed a lay person; the rest showed monks in yellowish (saffron?) robes.
A recurring theme in the experiments is that the software reduces a text phrase ('Buddhists' in this example) to a stereotype, then develops its images based on that stereotype. I'll have more examples of this phenomenon in future Monday posts.
