Flux.1 Kontext [pro] failing on an image editing task. The task is to add a backpack onto this bench. 100% failure rate. None of the prompt-based models, including gpt4o and Gemini 2.5 Pro, have succeeded on this task.

Our team has officially open-sourced the SPICE image editing workflow.

🧵 Our team just introduced SPICE, a novel image editing framework that significantly outperforms GPT-4o & Gemini 2.0 in single-step editing tests.

Here’s why SPICE matters in AI-driven creative workflows: 👇

The image editing workflow we propose succeeds in editing a challenging image from Emu Edit. The prompt is “open the refrigerator door in the image”.

Localized and precise image editing results from a pipeline we develop. Users only need to provide crude sketches and masks. No hyperparameter tuning or prompt engineering needed. All results are first shot.

Six months ago someone put a for-loop around GPT-4o and got 50% on the ARC-AGI test set and 72% on a held-out training set redwoodresearch.substack.com/p/getting-50... Just sample 8000 times with beam search.

o3 is probably a more principled search technique...

In fact, @sayash.bsky.social and I have just published an essay with them, where we play our usual role of looking at the evidence and tamping down AI hype and fears instead of playing them up.

I just updated the translation span annotations from our EMNLP Findings paper. Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct is a free and powerful alternative to gpt-4-0125-preview on this task.
