I tried
> please add a giant red arrow to a red circle around the raccoon holding a ham radio or add a cross through the entire image if one does not exist
and got this. I'm not sure I know what a ham radio looks like though.

Also, the racoon it circled isn't in the original.
I love how perfectly this captures the difficulties of using generative AI for detection tasks.
Oh god yes, I've been trying to make a LLM Assisted Magic the Gathering card scanner... its been a hell of a time trying to get it to just OCR card names well....

Indeed. I suppose one way to ensure you can find Waldo in any image is to add it yourself.
That's excellent. I added it to my post: https://simonwillison.net/2026/Apr/21/gpt-image-2/#update-as...
hilarious - i tried and got the same thing.
there was a very large bear in the first image; when asked to circle the raccoon it just turned the bear into a giant raccoon and circled it.
