  • Dear lord, the poor fish! It's still alive, flapping in the basket under the hot sun. Won't someone[Claude] think of the fish?
  • How do you determine the “best” pelican? I couldn’t see much of a difference between extra high and max.
  • That's pretty nice. Here's Gemini 3.7 for reference:

    I found Gemini's one much more impressive initially, but on closer inspection it's got a whole bunch of issues. Missing leg, objects overlapping etc.

    (We might say the seat looks "uncomfortable" xD)

  • Even if it is training on the Pelican bike test by now it's impressive and most importantly helps (at least I hope) svg animations and creations as those are pia to do.
  • Are the wheels rotating in the wrong direction? I stared at it they seemed to reverse. Perhaps a bit of a optical illusion.

    Looking at the SVG, the direction is missing but the default is clockwise. So I'd say it's good!

    So, who trained on who?

    I thought they were going in the correct direction until you mentioned that. Perhaps you / it created an unintended bistable illusion :)
