I have a standardized test I use for testing AI image editors, which I ran on Phind.design as well: I have a close-up picture a keyring which has a small hand-drawn painting of my puppy Freija. So my hand is visible in the image, as I'm holding the keyring. I ask the LLM to extract the puppy from the keyring, enlarge it so it fills the entire image and saturate the colours so that the hand-drawn painitng is the only thing which remains. I'm not interested in the picture of my hand holding a keyring, but the hand-drawn painting of the puppy.

This is somewhat trivial to do in Photoshop/Gimp. Hell, I'm sure most of you can visualize this transformation in your minds even. But it seems to be almost impossible for any AI image editor, Phind.design included.

What I got when I tried this using Phind was the very opposite of what I asked: it kept my hand holding the keyring, the keyring itself, but it replaced the puppy. Perhaps this is user error: should I not select the area I'd like to edit? Regardless, there were no attempts to coach me into using the tool correctly, even though the instructions might have been counter-intuitive, which I'd expect is half the point in using an AI tool.

So, well.. Maybe designers are safe for another day.
