  • Is it just me or is it kind of remarkable that all the remotely competent pelicans on bicycles kind of look the same?

    I assume that these have been in the training set for quite a while, but that they’re still a bit hard for the models because it’s not covered by the RL pipelines.

  • > The Astra pelicans are much better.

    It's absolutely in the training data now.

    Time to retire this (previously mildly amusing) benchmark as frontier models are now pelicanmaxxed.

  • What training data? Is there a big library of excellent SVG pelicans to train of?
  • 1. Head tube should aligned with the fork. GPT-5.6 Luna is particularly terrible here.

    2. Bikes are almost always depicted going rightwards so you can see the drivetrain. 4 failures in this.

    3. Only ~7 of the 23 models achieved a diamond bicycle frame shape

    4. Almost all the models have the bird directly over the crankset; as little as 4 or 5 have the birds sitting on a set-back bicycle seat.

The Pelican comparison grid for Astra is pretty interesting · Birbla
