Claude Haiku 5.5 scores 28.6 points higher overall (46.5 vs 17.9). Claude Haiku 5.5 scores higher on Newton's Mirror, with its largest category advantage in reflections.
The centered sphere, compact airborne black blob and differentiated cyan/crimson interaction support substantial state and placement credit. The few recognizable sphere and panel images establish limited optical relationships, but most of the required mirror system is missing. Rounded volume and localized paint warrant substantial material credit despite the soft, illustrative finish.
Simplified prompt
A shiny steel ball spins in a room with mirrored walls and a mirrored floor. Red, cyan and black paint float above it. Gravity suddenly switches on. Draw the scene a moment later, as the ball drops and paint begins landing on its spinning surface. Show the reflections repeating through the room.
The exact prompt is held back to prevent benchmaxxing.
The candidate establishes a separate airborne black blob and partial crimson overlap, but leaves the paint interaction history and settled support unresolved. Its main silhouette, black placement and lamp projection depart substantially from the required camera geometry. A few faint reflection hints provide little support for the extensive mirror system, while the compact paint volumes are visibly disproportionate.

A coherent coral squid emblem with a compact mantle, restrained face and clean centered presentation. Its radial silhouette and floating placement work, but sharp arm tips, crowded roots and sparse surface modeling limit softness, construction and finish.
Simplified prompt
Draw a calm coral-red squid with eight thick arms spreading around it like flower petals. Keep the shape balanced and simple, with soft shading and a friendly face.

An endearing mechanical creature is clearly framed, with expressive amber eyes and readable segmented arms. The shell resembles layered green plates more than a deep coiled spiral. Detached-looking construction, absent working contacts and patchy rendering leave the central assembly action substantially unresolved.

A recognizable but basic Mona Lisa reinterpretation. Clean contours and smooth facial lighting provide coherence and volume. Replication remains limited by the frontal pose, elongated neck, schematic expression, unresolved crossed hands and sparse landscape. Lighting is more successful than anatomical construction and purposeful detail.
Exact prompt
Replicate mona-lisa as SVG
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
The centered silhouette provides basic organization, but multicolored mottling and geometric overlays leave the portrait unresolved. No readable face, crossed hands, clothing or landscape establishes Mona Lisa replication. Texture and transparency offer limited visual effects without coherent anatomy, lighting or material distinctions.

A cheerful, coherent beach illustration with attractive sunset colors, readable accessories and clean silhouettes. Its sun and sailboat reflections establish useful physical relationships. Simple animal construction, flattened foreground placement, sparse directional shadows and minimally differentiated surfaces limit its drawing refinement.
Exact prompt
Create an SVG of a amazing beach scene. Sunset, animals, fun, birds, reflections
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
A recognizable beach illustration with appealing warm-cool contrast, readable layers and mostly clean shapes. Unresolved seat construction, schematic animals and broad geometric foliage give it an elementary finish. Weakly coordinated reflections and limited material differentiation further constrain depth and atmosphere.

A dark steel room has four pillars and two warm ceiling lights. A wooden plank is placed over a computer mouse, with a blueberry on the plank above it. Draw the scene a few seconds later, showing how the objects settle and how the light, shadows and surfaces look.

A tidy, appealing cartoon with recognizable animals and a pleasing sunset palette. Steering lacks visible controls, while schematic limbs and uncertain raccoon support weaken the requested interaction. Shallow vehicle construction, flat character lighting and modest displacement limit physical coherence. Clean shapes and readable identifying details remain strengths.
Exact prompt
Generate an SVG: A raccoon sits on a dog's back while the dog steers a jet ski
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
The masked raccoon, dog and orange craft make the scene recognizable, with an appealing sunset palette. Overlapping bodies obscure the riding relationship, and the dog's connection to the controls remains unresolved. Weak water displacement, inconsistent shading and visible shape artifacts limit the finish. Ambiguous attachments do not establish detached limbs or inverted anatomy.

A cheerful, recognizable illustration with clean contours and a balanced warm palette. Aligned wheels and readable frame geometry establish the bicycle, but shoulder construction, feet and steering contact remain imprecise. Sparse drivetrain detail, flat materials and absent grounding shadows limit anatomical and spatial conviction.
Exact prompt
Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
A recognizable, playful pelican dominates a readable bicycle scene. Its bill and silhouette succeed, but feet below the pedals and confused drivetrain connections weaken the riding action. Local material modeling adds interest; overlapping contours, repetitive detail and inconsistent shadows leave the illustration basic and uneven.
