2025-04-18 13:26:00+00:00 Animated demo. Two pelican outlines are shown offset from each other - clicking the four different origin buttons causes them to move in relationship to each other. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/flap.gif https://simonwillison.net/2025/Apr/18/gemini-image-segmentation
2025-04-18 13:26:00+00:00 Screenshot of mask tool. At the top is a select box to pick a model (currently using Gemini 2.5 Pro) and a prompt that reads: Give the segmentation masks for the pelicans. Output a JSON list of segmentation masks where each entry contains the 2D bounding box in the key &quot;box_2d&quot; and the segmentation mask in key &quot;mask&quot;. Below that is JSON that came back - an array of objects. The mask keys are base64 encoded PNG data. Below that is the original image, then the image with masks overlaid and a coordinate system, then two columns showing each cropped image and mask next to each other. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/mask-tool.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Apr/18/gemini-image-segmentation
2025-04-16 17:46:35+00:00 Described by o4-mini: The image is a very simple, minimalistic line drawing of a bird riding a bicycle, rendered against a plain white background. Key elements: • Two large, identical circles for the bike’s wheels, outlined in thick black. • A horizontal bar links the rear wheel to the bird’s body; a slanted bar links the front wheel to the bird. • The front wheel has a single straight spoke ending in an arrowhead, suggesting the forward direction of travel. • The bird itself is drawn with basic shapes: – A small circle for the head, with a single dot for the eye and a short yellow triangle for the beak. – An oval for the body. – Thin lines for the neck, legs, and the bike’s pedals and handlebars. • The bird appears perched on the saddle, its legs extending down to the pedals, and its tiny wings resting near the handlebars. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/o4-mini-pelican.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Apr/16/introducing-openai-o3-and-o4-mini
2025-04-16 17:46:35+00:00 Described by o3: The illustration shows a playful, stylized bicycle whose frame is drawn to resemble a duck. • The duck’s rounded body forms the bicycle’s seat area, and a small wing is sketched on its side. • Its long neck stretches forward to become the top tube, ending in a simple head with a black eye and an orange, open beak that points ahead like handlebars. • Two large black‑outlined wheels with thin, evenly spaced spokes complete the bike, while thin blue lines depict the rest of the frame, pedals, and chain. • A dashed grey ground line runs beneath the wheels, giving the impression the duck‑bike is rolling along. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/o3-pelican.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Apr/16/introducing-openai-o3-and-o4-mini

2025-04-14 18:12:12+00:00 Not a terrible pelican on a bicycle. The frame is blue, though misshapen. The pelican's legs are detached from its body. It has a nice but square beak. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/gpt-4.1-pelican.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Apr/14/gpt-4-1
2025-03-28 00:18:43+00:00 Animated GIF demo - as I type JSON it is pretty printed below, at the end I click the Load Pelican Example button. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/pretty-print-json.gif https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/28/incomplete-json-pretty-printer

2025-03-25 20:45:58+00:00 The bicycle has pokes but the pedal is in the wrong place, and the pelican perches uncomfortably on the seat with weird looking wings. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/pelican-claude-3.7-sonnet.svg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/25/gemini
2025-03-25 20:45:58+00:00 The pelican is perched at an angle which suggests an effort at having it make contact with the pedals. It has a good large beak. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/gemini-2.5-pro-pelican.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/25/gemini
2025-03-24 15:04:04+00:00 There's a pelican, and a bicycle, but both of them look disassembled. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/deepseek-v3-pelican.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/24/deepseek
2025-03-19 23:54:16+00:00 A bit better - no pedals, so they cannot be in the wrong place. The bird has a slightly more majestic beak. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/o1-pro-high-pelican.png https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/19/o1-pro
2025-03-19 23:54:16+00:00 Clearly a bird riding a bicycle. The pedals are in the wrong place and the bird doesn't quite have the majestic beak of a pelican. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/o1-pro-pelican.png https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/19/o1-pro

2025-02-18 16:46:25+00:00 Grok 3's pelicans are pretty good, though I still slightly prefer Claude 3.5 Sonnet's. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/grok3-pelican.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Feb/18/andrej-karpathy-grok-3
2025-02-05 16:37:29+00:00 This one is pleasingly avant-garde. The bicycle does at least have two wheels joined by a frame. The pelican is a fun shape, and it has a beak with a curved orange top and a curved yellow bottom. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/gemini-2.0-pro-exp-02-05.svg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Feb/5/gemini-2
2025-02-05 16:37:29+00:00 This is not great. The bicycle is a trapezoid. The pelican is very warped and has a orange diamond beak above its head. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/gemini-2.0-flash-lite-preview-02-05.svg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Feb/5/gemini-2
2025-02-05 16:37:29+00:00 The bicycle is better but the pelican is yellow and looks more like a baby chick. Its beak is squashed against the side of the image. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2025/gemini-2.0-flash.svg https://simonwillison.net/2025/Feb/5/gemini-2

2024-12-19 23:59:54+00:00 The bicycle has two wheels but looks more like a pram. The pelican has a good orange beak but its wings are triangles that are oddly positioned. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2024/thinking-pelican.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2024/Dec/19/gemini-thinking-mode

Output a json list where each entry contains the object name in &quot;label&quot; and its 3D bounding box in &quot;box_3d&quot; - the model has returned a JSON list like that and is showing the photograph of pelicans on the right covered in exciting 3D boxes, which look like they about line up with the 2D pelicans https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2024/3d-bbox.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2024/Dec/11/gemini-2

2024-12-09 15:08:40+00:00 It's not great.

2024-11-12 23:37:36+00:00 A jumble of shapes. The pelican has a yellow body, a black head and a weird proboscis kind of thing. The bicycle is several brown overlapping shapes that looks a bit like a tractor. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2024/qwen-pelican.svg https://simonwillison.net/2024/Nov/12/qwen25-coder
2024-11-02 05:27:25+00:00 Animated terminal demo. My prompt is tell me about pelicans. The model responds: Sure, I'd be happy to tell you about pelicans! Pelicans are a group of aquatic birds in the order Pelecaniformes, which also includes the cormorants, darters, and frigatebirds. They are found on all continents except Antarctica, and are known for their distinctive pouch-like bill. There are several species of pelicans. The most common species is the Brown Pelican, which is found in the Americas. It's the only species that plunges into water from a significant height to catch fish and other prey, a behavior known as "fish-grabbing." Another common species is the American White Pelican, which can be found in both the Americas and Eurasia. It has a white plumage and a large, bright pink bill, and feeds on fish in lakes, rivers, and coastal wetlands. Pelicans are generally medium-sized birds, but the Brown Pelican is the largest, with an average height of around 26-30 inches. Their bills can be as long as 11 inches!

Prompt: 5 great names for a pet pelican Model A: Pelicans are such unique birds with their large beaks and impressive wingspan! Here are five great names for a pet pelican: 1. Scooper - This name highlights their incredible ability to scoop up fish with their large bill. 2. Pelly - A cute and affectionate name that’s easy to call out. 3. Captain - Perfect for a bird that soars majestically over the seas. 4. Gulliver - Inspired by the traveler, this name suits a bird known for long migrations. 5. Nibbles - Despite their size, pelicans feed primarily on small fish, making this a playful and ironic choice. Model B: Sure, here are five great names for a pet pelican: 1. Percy 2. Gulliver 3.

2023-05-04 15:42:25+00:00 Four images of pelicans having a tea party.

2023-04-16 15:10:45+00:00 Prompt: A rap battle between a pelican and a sea otter. Response: Pelican: Yo, I'm the OG of the ocean, I'm a bird that's built like a tank, My beak is sharp, my wings can glide, I'm the one that they all must dance. Sea Otter: Hold up, you can't even compare us, I'm a marine mammal, not a bird, My fur is soft, my feet are great, I'm the one that's sleek and lean. Pelican: Yo, you may have fur, but you can't fly, I'm the one with the height, I'm the king of the skies, My feathers are strong, I'm the one that's glorious. Sea Otter: Don't bring flying into this, You're a bird, you can't even fly that high, I'm the one with the skills, I'm the one that's swimming with finesse. Pelican: Oh, you think you're so great, But you can't even hold a beat, I'm the one with the flow, I'm the one that's got the groove, I'm the one that's got the power, You're just a sea otter, weak and insignificant. Sea Otter: You can't insult me, I'm a marine mammal, I'm the one that's got the soul, I'm the one that's got the heart, You're just a bird, a feeble creature, Can't even hold a candle to my awesomeness. https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2023/web-llm-rap-battle.jpg https://simonwillison.net/2023/Apr/16/web-llm
