I love that GPT-5 is putting the clock hands way outside the frame and just generally is a mess. Maybe we'll look back on these mistakes just like watching kids grow up and fumble basic tasks. Humorous in its own unique way.

Or regret: "why didn't we stop it when we could?"

#223Amazing, some people are so enamored with LLMs who use them for soft outcomes, and disagree with me when I say be careful they're not perfect -- this is such a great non technical way to explain the reality I'm seeing when using on hard outcome coding/logic tasks. "Hey this test is failing", LLM deletes test , "FIXED!"
Yeah it seems crazy to use LLM on any task where the output can't be easily verified.

I disagree, those tasks are perfect for LLMs, since a bug you can't verify isn't a problem when vibecoding.

#224I'm having a hard time believing this site is honest, especially with how ridiculous the scaling and rotation of numbers is for most of them.
I dumped his prompt into chatgpt to try it myself and it did create a very neat clock face with the numbers at the correct position+animated second hand, it just got the exact time wrong, being a few hours off.
Edit: the time may actually have been perfect now that I account for my isp's geo-located time zone

#225hi, I made this. thank you for posting. I love clocks and I love finding the edges of what any given technology is capable of. I've watched this for many hours and Kimi frequently gets the most accurate clock but also the least variation and is most boring. Qwen is often times the most insane and makes me laugh. Which one is "better?"
If you're keeping all the generated clocks in a database, I'd love to see a Facemash style spin-off website where users pick the best clock between two options, with a leaderboard. I want to know what the best clock Qwen ever made was!

#226Since the first (good) image generation models became available, I've been trying to get them to generate an image of a clock with 13 instead of the usual 12 hour divisions. I have not been successful. Usually they will just replace the "12" with a "13" and/or mess up the clock face in some other way. I'd be interested if anyone else is successful. Share how you did it!
This is really cool. I tried to prompt gemini but every time I got the same picture . I do not know how to share a session (like it is possible with Chatgpt) but the prompts were If a clock had 13 hours, what would be the angle between two of these 13 hours? Generate an image of such a clock No, I want the clock to have 13 distinct hours, with the angle between them as you calculated above This is the same image. The…
you can click the share icon (the two-way branch icon, it doesn't look like apple's share icon) under the image it generates to share the conversation.
i'm curious if the clock image it was giving you was the same one it was giving me

#227Earlier quoted context omitted.
How much engineering do prompt engineers do? Is it engineering when you add "photorealistic. correct number of fingers and teeth. High quality." to the end of a prompt? we should call them "prompt witch doctors" or maybe "prompt alchemists".
Well if it works consistently, I don't see any problem with that. If they have a clear theory of when to add "photorealistic" and when to add "correct number of wheels on the bus" to get the output they want, it's engineering. If they don't have a (falsifiable) theory, it's probably not engineering. Of course, the service they really provide is for businesses to feel they "do AI", and whether or not they do real engi…
Maybe we could keep the conversation out of the gutter.

It could be that the prompt is accidentally (or purposefully) more optimised for Kimi K2, or that Kimi K2 is better trained on this particular data. LLM's need "prompt engineers" for a reason to get the most out of a particular model.

It could be bioengineering if you add that to a clock prompt then connect it to CRISPR process for out putting DNA.
Horrifying prospect, tbh
Re: AI World Clocks
#229Watching this over the past few minutes, it looks like Kimi K2 generates the best clock face most consistently. I'd never heard of that model before today! Qwen 2.5's clocks, on the other hand, look like they never make it out of the womb.
I knew of Kimi K2 because it’s the model used by Kagi to generate the AI answers when query ends with an interrogation point.
It's also one of the few 'recommended' models in Kagi Assistant (multi-model ChatGPT basically, available on paid plans).
