At this point drawing these Pelicans must be in the training data sets.

Yes we all know that, but we still like to see the pelicans because it's a tradition more or less

Clearly not.

I mean the prompt was succinct and clear, as always - and it still decided to hallucinate multiple features (animation + controls) beyond the prompt.

It'd also like to point out that to date no drawing was actually good from an actual quality perspective (as in comparative to what a decent designer would throw together)

Theyre always only "good" from the perspective of it being a one shot low effort prompt. Very little content for training purposes.

I’m OK with a Chinese model getting the W. It’s ultimately good for all of us.
