They need to benchmaxxx a whole lot harder, the illustrations still all universally suck!


I fully expect a model to output a SVG made up of 1000x1000 rectangles (i.e. pixels) representing a raster image of a beautifully hand-drawn pelican riding a bicycle any day now :)


I got an amazing result from ChatGPT a while back - an SVG with a perfect illustration of a pelican riding a bicycle.

It was suspiciously good in fact... so I downloaded the SVG file and found out it had generated a raster image with its image tool and then embedded it as base64 binary image data inside an SVG wrapper!


You’ll just have to move the goalpost then; perhaps it can be a multidimensional pelican saving the multiverse, or an invisible pelican that only you can see and critique.


How would that help, given that ChatGPT has apparently already figured out how to consistently and systematically game the benchmark by working in pixel space and only using SVG as a wrapper for a raster image?

FWIW, I could totally see a not hugely more advanced model using its native image generation capabilities and then running a vector extraction tool on it, maybe iteratively. (And maybe I would not consider that cheating, anymore, since at some point that probably resembles what humans do?)


ive got such pixelated rectangle SVG's a few times.

also with cursor, "write me a script that outputs X as an svg" it has given me rectangles a few times.
