I think it's a joke at this point, but also the visual benchmark is a remarkably dense method for demonstrating how good a model is.

  • Yeah, people like to poop on the pelican. But pelican quality still correlated with overall model capabilities reasonably well, and you can immediately see and interpret it. It's a running gag, but it also does have some actual value.

So do you have the pelican or no?

    • Can you please not be so sneery/grouchy? That's far worse for HN than suboptimal benchmarks. The guidelines specifically ask us to avoid being curmudgeonly.

    • Ok, so I looked at all of your links, but nary a pelican to be found. How am I supposed to know what all these numbers mean if there is no pelican?
