They said they're training a new base model for better multimodal performance soon. I wouldn't expect it to be able to read an image like that today. Maybe if you provided it in text format.

As a point of interest and for comparison, Gemini 2.5 Pro is able to generate a Python program that outputs the complete correct solution when run, but it can't figure out how to one-shot the problem if asked directly.
This is just a for-fun test to get a sense of how models are progressing; it highlights the jagged nature of their intelligence and capabilities. None of the big AI labs are testing for such a basic problem type, which makes it a bit of an interesting check.
I think it's still interesting to see how Grok 4 performs, even if we don't use this test to draw any broader conclusions about what capabilities it offers.
description from openrouter:
> Grok 4 is xAI's latest reasoning model with a 256k context window. It supports parallel tool calling, structured outputs, and both image and text inputs. Note that reasoning is not exposed, reasoning cannot be disabled, and the reasoning effort cannot be specified.
