What's important about this new type of image generation that's happening with tokens rather than with diffusion, is that this is effectively reasoning in pixel space. Example: Ask it to draw a notepad with an empty tic-tac-toe, then tell it to make the first move, then you make a move, and so on. You can also do very impressive information-conserving translations, such as changing the drawing style, but also stuff l…

Wrt reasoning I’ll believe it when I see it. I just tried several variants of “Generate an image of a chess board in which white has played three great moves and black has played two bad moves.” Results are totally nonsensical as always.

I try this on every new generation: Generate a photo of a lake taken by a mobile phone camera. No hands or phones in the photo, just the lake. The hand holding a phone is always there :D

Few image generation AI tools understand negatives. If you tell it "not" to do something, that something will always appear somehow.

It's definitely impressive though once again fell flat on the ability to render a 9-pointed star.
