Grok isn’t much better. I’ve tried to have it create images from the Bible, and it refused to do it.

Gemini, apparently, is much better. I ask for an image from the Bible. I got a scene of the ark just offshore, partially loaded, a boat taking riders out to the ark and people and animals onshore waiting.
It was drawn very much in the style of biblical images we see.
I just asked for an image of Moses parting the red sea and I got an image.
After a little bit of success, things changed.
The best image I got was of David, depicted as a mature adult, standing with a sling loaded with a 15 pound stone. Nearby was Goliath laying on the ground.
When I attempted to make David younger and Goliath bigger, I was denied any image.
If you ask Grok about the image filtering going on, he will expound at great length regarding the filtering.
Acts of violence are censored. If you get near the edges of permissibility, the filtering tightens up, anticipating that you are headed in a direction that will make trouble for Grok.
I was denied Adam and Eve in the Garden because, of course, they had no clothes and the filtering mechanism knew this. I then asked for the same but with Adam and Eve clothed. I got a picture, but there was a second woman in the picture. I forgot to ask about that.
I asked for a picture of David loading his sling. David appeared with three arms. No wonder Goliath lost.
A week or two ago I asked for a picture of Ben Franklin doing a handstand. The image was reasonable except that Franklin had an extra leg and an extra arm. Also, the hands on Franklin were reversed; that is, a right arm had a left hand and vice versa. I should test that again to see if Grok's knowledge of human anatomy has improved.
