Watching 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.

Re: AI World Clocks
#282hi, 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?"
Clock drawing is widely used as a test for assessing dementia. Sometimes the LLMs fail in ways that are fairly predictable if you're familiar with CSS and typical shortcomings of LLMs, but sometimes they fail in ways that are less obvious from a technical perspective but are exactly the same failure modes as cognitively-impaired humans. I think you might have stumbled upon something surprisingly profound. https://www…

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.
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".

#284Since 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!
I gave this "riddle" to various models: > The farmer and the goat are going to the river. They look into the sky and see three clouds shaped like: a wolf, a cabbage and a boat that can carry the farmer and one item. How can they safely cross the river? Most of them are just giving the result to the well known river crossing riddle. Some "feel" that something is off, but still have a hard time to figure out that wolf,…

Why is this different per user? I sent this to a few friends and they all see different things from what i'm seeing, for the same time..?
It regenerates on page load. I find that pretty useful. Grok 4 and Kimi nailed it the first time for me, then only Kimi on the second pass.

Sure, we are still closer to alchemy than materials science, but its still early days. But consider this blogpost that was on the front page today: https://www.levs.fyi/blog/2-years-of-ml-vs-1-month-of-prompt... . The table on the bottom shows a generally steady increase in performance just by iterating on prompts. It feels like we are on the path to true engineering.

I’ve been using Kimi K2 a lot this month. Gives me Japanese->English translations at near human levels of quality, while respecting rules and context I give it in a very long, multi-page system prompt to improve fidelity of translation for a given translation target (sometimes markup tags need to be preserved, sometimes deleted, etc.). It doesn’t require a thinking step to generate this level of translation quality,…

Re: AI World Clocks
#290Cool, and marginally informative on the current state of things. but kind of a waste of energy given everything is re-done every minute to compare. We'd probably only need a handful of each to see the meaningful differences.
The energy usage is minuscule.
