GPT 5.6 Sol scores 29.5 points higher overall (49.0 vs 19.5). GPT 5.6 Sol scores higher on Newton's Mirror, with its largest category advantage in state at 600 ms.
The central sphere and paint ordering are supported, but a frontal, centrally converging chamber replaces the required corner perspective. The first wall and floor images have incorrect placement and scale relationships. Sparse reflection cues remain, while continuous outer chains, open lateral sightlines, dense planar light sequences and curved nested spherical imagery are largely missing.
Benchmark task
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 small paint features and convex shading deserve moderate material credit. The sphere remains undersized and low, with black unusually close to its apex. Crimson and cyan do not establish the required impact histories. Faint reflected echoes supply limited optical evidence, while the defining recursive room, nested sphere and emitter structures remain unestablished.

Six evenly spaced lobes, outward-facing heads and a clear central hexagon establish the requested knot. The ivory silhouette is controlled, but broad crossing bands resemble rigid strips, shading provides limited muscular volume, and repetitive scale lines extend across black loop openings. Small oval heads have readable eyes and mouths but limited anatomical character or moist surface detail.
Benchmark task
Draw a pale six-headed snake woven into a symmetrical knot. Its body passes over and under itself around a small hexagonal opening, with six little heads facing outward. Add lifelike scales, curved muscles and shadows without losing the clear knot shape.
A recognizable lantern-and-moth illustration with appealing coloured wings and tidy outer contours. Simple construction, a small focal subject and crowded overlaps limit character and depth. The face, six-leg anatomy, seedling and antenna-driven watering joke remain insufficiently readable.
The crossed hands, dark dress and winding landscape establish the Mona Lisa composition. Replication is limited by enlarged eyes, an elongated face and a more frontal pose. Broad gradients suggest volume, but outlined features and flattened, overlapping fingers weaken the portrait. The frame and restrained palette unify the image; visible grain adds texture without convincing painterly transitions.
A recognizable Mona Lisa motif emerges from dark hair, a pale face and a landscape band. Replication remains weak: the oversized frontal head, broad smile, unresolved torso and missing crossed-hand anatomy diverge substantially from the reference. Simple fills and sparse strokes provide limited volume, material definition or painterly complexity.
The purple-to-gold sunset, framing palms and varied beach activities create an appealing, coherent illustration. The sun’s reflection establishes a clear focal path. Figures and animals are recognizable but geometrically simplified; airborne dolphins lack convincing splashes, and the boat reflection is schematic. Clean silhouettes and playful details succeed more strongly than anatomical depth or material realism.

Create an SVG of a amazing beach scene. Sunset, animals, fun, birds, reflections
A coherent, cheerful beach scene with balanced placement, clean shapes and controlled sunset colours. Animals, birds and playful accessories are recognizable, but basic dolphin construction, weak grounding, schematic reflections and sparse material detail limit the drawing's accomplishment.

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.

Expressive faces, bold silhouettes and layered waves make an appealing cartoon. The raccoon sits convincingly behind the dog's shoulders, and the dog's forward paw reaches the steering grip. Steering construction and seated support remain somewhat ambiguous. The glowing sunset lacks a corresponding warm reflection or consistent illumination on the riders.

Generate an SVG: A raccoon sits on a dog's back while the dog steers a jet ski
The recognizable raccoon and clean, shaded forms make a readable cartoon. The dog's steering remains undemonstrated, while ambiguous seating contacts and a minimally constructed craft weaken the central interaction. Controlled gradients and edges deserve credit, but anatomy, purposeful detail and water displacement remain basic.

The expressive pelican and balanced coastal composition remain appealing, but a sky-colored slit between the neck contours above the wing leaves the central anatomy incoherent. This visible construction and layering defect prevents a clean-integrity assessment. Clustered feet lack clear pedal contacts and the chain routing is schematic; lighting and water reflections remain graphic.
A recognizable pelican and bicycle combine clean rounded forms, expressive facial details and effective surface shading. Aligned wheels and soft shadows establish placement, but unresolved pedal engagement, absent steering contact and sparse drivetrain construction weaken the riding action. Limited feather complexity and shallow space constrain an otherwise appealing illustration.
