Newton's Mirror

Physics, perspective and recursive reflections, tested together. Explore the test ↗

The judgment

Beam 1.0 501B A23B

Central object placement is fairly close, but the defining mirrored-room structure is missing. The paint colors suggest the required contact order without establishing their different interaction histories. The faint floor oval does not demonstrate valid reflection geometry, so it earns no reflection credit. Rounded volume and glossy paint provide limited material credit despite weak metallic finishes and oversized paint bodies.

DeepSeek-V4-Pro-0813

The central sphere and gross paint state are coherent. Reduced circular side images and paired overhead quadrilaterals offer limited, spatially organized reflection cues, but the floor-sphere image, receding mirror-room structure, outer chains, nested imagery and curved emitter mappings are largely missing or invalid.

Selfie

Different task instructions

Visual construction and creative interpretation.

The judgment

Beam 1.0 501B A23B

An appealing expression and warm palette support a coherent simple cartoon. The central polishing joke is not legible: the cloth is unresolved and the nose sits away from the fan. Pointed radial plates, uncertain limb attachments and weak ground contact limit construction, while restrained surface detail limits material richness.

DeepSeek-V4-Pro-0813

The whale’s warm eye, lavender assistant and tilted shell convey appealing character. However, the shrimp and reciprocal inspection are unresolved, the large bubble and upper tail are cropped, and the flipper’s grip is unclear. Broad competing color fields and conspicuous stepped edges weaken the flowing composition. Gradients suggest volume, but lighting and translucent materials remain uneven.

A golden pangolin polishes its oversized amber tail while its nose smudges the same scale. The scene tests expressive anatomy, physical contact and contrasting translucent, polished and soft materials.

DeepSeek-V4-Pro-0813

A whale and a tiny shrimp examine one another through bubble lenses, with an octopus nearby. The scene tests interacting characters, differences in scale and transparent materials.

Mona Lisa

Different task instructions

Precise visual recall and portrait reconstruction.

The judgment

Beam 1.0 501B A23B

The candidate shows a faint warm oval against an almost entirely black field. Minimal placement and smooth tonal variation are visible, but the portrait, anatomy, crossed hands and landscape remain unreadable. The saved comparisons provide no specific evidence supporting a change to the baseline categories.

DeepSeek-V4-Pro-0813

Dark hair, a restrained smile and a hazy landscape make the reference recognizable. Severe construction problems dominate: oversized looping sleeves surround a background-colored opening, and the crossed hands lack coherent wrist and forearm connections. Rigid symmetry and elongated facial proportions weaken expression. Soft skin gradients and clean contours provide limited finish.

Beach

Different task instructions

Creativity, perspective and visual beauty.

The judgment

Beam 1.0 501B A23B

A coherent, cheerful beach illustration fulfills the main subjects with clean shapes and a strong sunset focal point. Its basic geometric construction, ambiguous animal anatomy, shallow depth and schematic lighting limit its accomplishment. Decorative details provide interest without developing intricate forms or convincing physical surfaces.

DeepSeek-V4-Pro-0813

The glowing sunset, framing palms and layered shoreline create a coherent beach scene with animals, birds and playful accessories. The airborne blue animal has unclear anatomy, while flat foliage, weak ground contact and broad oval reflections limit depth and finish. The image is appealing but visibly simplified.

Raccoon

Different task instructions

Scene composition and interacting subjects.

The judgment

Beam 1.0 501B A23B

A cheerful, readable illustration with recognizable animals, expressive faces and useful accessories. Simple rounded construction limits complexity, while ambiguous steering attachments and weak hull-to-water contact reduce physical coherence. Lighting and surface effects establish the setting without convincing environmental interaction.

DeepSeek-V4-Pro-0813

The masked raccoon riding the steering dog is readily recognizable, with expressive faces and energetic diagonal movement. The oversized tail dominates the composition, limb connections are difficult to trace, and the jet ski has little structural depth. Blurred spray and a heavy oval shadow weaken water contact, while the glowing sun produces little corresponding illumination.

Pelican

Different task instructions

The judgment

Beam 1.0 501B A23B

A cheerful, clearly readable pelican-and-bicycle illustration with clean contours and balanced composition. Simple geometric construction limits artistic complexity, while ambiguous neck and steering overlaps, merged pedal contacts and an incomplete drivetrain weaken physical coherence.

DeepSeek-V4-Pro-0813

A clearly recognizable pelican cycles through a balanced, expressive illustration. The sweeping bill, shaded plumage and carefully drawn wheels give it character. Mechanical construction is weaker: the chain loop sits below the crank, and foot-to-pedal and wing-to-handlebar contact are ambiguous. Smooth gradients provide volume, but the scene remains visibly stylized.
