GPT 5.6 Terra scores 22.1 points higher overall (51.1 vs 29.0). GPT 5.6 Terra scores higher on Newton's Mirror, with its largest category advantage in state at 600 ms.
The real sphere and airborne black blob are substantially too low in the complete frame after accounting for aspect ratio.
The first wall and floor reflections have incompatible placement, relative size or silhouette.
Both lateral regions lack the references' receding lane-and-chain organization.
The few recognizable mirror images provide limited optical structure. The main, side and floor spheres replace nested mirror imagery with smooth bands, while sparse planar light patches and broad spherical highlights fail to establish coherent repeated emitter mapping.
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.

Six ivory heads and rounded lobes create a striking radial emblem around a clear hexagonal opening. Soft shading gives the bodies volume, but abrupt rectangular and diagonal band endings make the continuous alternating weave ambiguous. Repetitive scale lines and simplified faces convey an ornamental serpent more convincingly than living anatomy.
Simplified prompt
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.

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.

Warm sunset gradients, framing palms and colorful beach activities create an appealing scene. Animals, birds and a sun reflection fulfill the brief. The dog and turtle remain schematic, foreground depth is shallow, and the reflection forms rigid bands. Clean silhouettes and readable accessories support a competent illustration, but limited anatomy, material variation and lighting keep it below exceptional.
Exact prompt
Create an SVG of a amazing beach scene. Sunset, animals, fun, birds, reflections

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.

The dark clothing, central portrait and restrained smile evoke the Mona Lisa, but replication is limited by the broad face, elongated neck, nearly frontal pose and indistinct landscape. Soft gradients give the face some volume. Crossed arms become rounded masses without readable fingers or wrists, and the expression lacks the original's subtlety. Clean framing and curves support an otherwise basic, uneven portrait.
Exact prompt
Replicate mona-lisa as SVG

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.

Expressive faces, a recognizable raccoon perched on the dog, and a sweeping wake make an appealing cartoon. The principal weakness is the steering interaction: the dog's paw sits beside the control assembly without a convincing handlebar grip. Bold outlines and coherent layering provide polish, while simplified shading, compressed seating geometry and angular splashes limit depth and physical credibility.

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.

The oversized bill, expressive eye and balanced twilight palette make the cyclist immediately readable. Clean contours and wheel details support the illustration, but the rabbit-like head tufts weaken pelican likeness. The wing does not clearly grip the handlebar, pedal contact is uneven, and the drivetrain is incomplete. Lighting remains mostly decorative.

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.
