No way. The Pro pelican is fatter, has a customized front fork, and the sun is shining! He’s definitely living the best life.

This is just a random thought, but have you tried doing an 'agentic' pelican?

As in have the model consider its generated SVG, and gradually refine it, using its knowledge of the relative positions and proportions of the shapes generated, and have it spin for a while, and hopefully the end result will be better than just oneshotting it.

Or maybe going even one step further - most modern models have tool use and image recognition capabilities - what if you have it generate an SVG (or parts/layers of it, as per the model's discretion) and feed it back to itself via image recognition, and then improve on the result.

I think it'd be interesting to see, as for a lot of models, their oneshot capability in coding is not necessarily corellated with their in-harness ability, the latter which really matters.

The Flash one is pretty impressive. Might be my favorite so far in the pelican-riding-a-bicycle series

DeepSeek pelicans are the angriest pelicans I’ve seen so far.

Being a bicycle geometry nerd I always look at the bicycle first.

Let me tell you how much the Pro one sucks... It looks like failed Pedersen[1]. The rear wheel intersects with the bottom bracket, so it wouldn't even roll. Or rather, this bike couldn't exist.

The flash one looks surprisingly correct with some wild fork offset and the slackest of seat tubes. It's got some lowrider[2] aspirations with the small wheels, but with longer, Rivendellish[3], chainstays. The seat post has different angle than the seat tube, so good luck lowering that.

I think the pelican on a bike is known widely enough that of seizes to be useful as a benchmark. There is even a pelican briefly appearing in the promo video of GPT-5, if I'm not mistaken https://openai.com/gpt-5/. So the companies are apparently aware of it.

What was your prompt for the image? Apologies if this should be obvious.

To me this is the perfect proof that

1) LLM is not AGI. Because surely if AGI it would imply that pro would do better than flash?

2) and because of the above, Pelican example is most likely already being benchmaxxed.

Is it then Deepseek hosted by Deepseek?

How much does the drawing change if you ask it again?

I really like the pro version. The pelican is so cute.

Where is the GPT 5.5 Pelican?

Why they so angry?

This should not be the top comment on every model release post. It's getting tiring.
