The Generative Burrito Test
- elzbardico 10mo agoOnly nano banana looks somewhat partially-eaten.

- namegulf 10mo agoThis is spooking our appetite
- ilaksh 10mo agoI'm so easily influenced. I came very close to immediately ordering Mexican food on DoorDash.
- skocznymroczny 10mo agoThat SD 1.5 picture doesn't look like base SD 1.5. It's way too good, perhaps it was some kind of finetune like RealisticVision?
- pathdependent 10mo agohrm. yea you're right. the page on fal used to produce it was linked with the image, but maybe i made a mistake and sloppily saved wrong one. ill have to reroll to check
- adammarples 10mo agoNano banana is incredible. What is their secret sauce?
- jfim 10mo agoA training corpus that includes the images from Google image search probably helps a lot.
- kbenson 10mo agoOh wow, I've been hearing about Nano Banana Pro in random stuff lately, but as a layman the difference is stark. It's the only one that actually looks like a partially eaten burrito at all to me. The others all look like staged marketing fake food, if I'm being generous (only a few actually approach that, most just look wrong).
- kemayo 10mo agoHunyuan V3 is the only other one that plausibly has a bite taken. The weirdness of the fillings being decoratively sprinkled on top of it does rather count against it, though.
- andai 10mo agoHide the evidence!
- Aloisius 10mo agoThe NBP looks like a mock of food to me - the unwrapped burrito on a single piece of intact tinfoil, a table where the grain goes all wonky, an almost pastry looking tortilla, hyperrealistic beans and there's something wrong with the focal plane. It's just not as plasticy and oversaturated as the others.
- zenoprax 10mo agoHyperrealistic beans? The focal plane? You are reaching really hard here. The table grain is the only thing that gives it away - if it weren't for that no one without advance warning is going to notice that it's not real.
- PostOnce 10mo agoI am a huge AI skeptic, check my comment history. I agree with you. The Nano Banana Pro burrito is almost perfect, the wood grain direction/perspective is the only questionable element. Almost no one would ID that as being AI.
- koakuma-chan 10mo agoImpressive partially eaten burrito by NB Pro
- N_Lens 10mo agoNano b̶a̶n̶a̶n̶a̶ burrito
- drob518 10mo agoThe burrito benchmark is poised to become an industry standard.
- _joel 10mo agoRicing a bit more performance out.
- visioninmyblood 10mo agoWould be great to see video results for this as well. I generated some with other models. Nano pro seems the best so far
- JumpCrisscross 10mo agoAn interesting American culinary divide is between Scottsdale and Phoenix homemade burritos. The former being close to the Midwest variety, the latter to a Sonoran style. Even ignoring the Heinz bean outliers, these are all decidedly Scottsdale. With one exception. All hail Nano Banana.
- throwup238 10mo agoThey all just look like generic Mission burritos to me (leaning towards fast food menu photos), except some include lettuce and some have blisters sonoran style. Only Nano Banana really looks like something I'd get at El Farolito or an LA food truck.
- throwup238 10mo agoJust convert a tamale extruder to take in raw tortilla dough and bake the whole thing at once to cook the tortilla around the fillings.
- corpMaverick 10mo agoI am disappointed there were not donkeys in any image.
- jasonthorsness 10mo agoThis progress bodes well for my chances of visualizing an invention I have been working on, a perpetual burrito extruding machine
- ruined 10mo agolet me know when you're in preseed
- minimaxir 10mo agoOne of my tests for new image generation models is professional food photography, particularly in cases where the food has constraints, such as "a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in the shape of a Rubik’s cube" (blog post from 2022 for DALL-E 2: https://minimaxir.com/2022/07/food-photography-ai/ https://minimaxir.com/2022/07/food-photography-ai/ ) For some reason ever since DALL-E 2, all food models seem to generate obviously fake food and/or misinterpret the fun constraints...until Nano Banana. Now I can generate fractal Sierpiński triangle peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
- vunderba 10mo agoNano-Banana does a (inter)stellar job with food based prompts. https://mordenstar.com/portfolio/wontauns https://mordenstar.com/portfolio/wontauns
- morkalork 10mo agoMake you wonder if they're using all the restaurant review photos on google maps to train
- BoorishBears 10mo agoI tried having Claude generate a prompt for Seedream and got this: https://imgur.com/a/6xX5TDE https://imgur.com/a/6xX5TDE I can kind of see what you mean in that it went for realism in the aesthetics, but not the object... but that last one would probably fool me if I was scrolling
- minimaxir 10mo agoThose are better than usual: I've gotten generations from earlier models that are just a normal colorful Rubix's cube between two slices of bread.
- qingcharles 10mo agoHere's Nano Banana Pro, which nailed it, IMO, but I had to fudge the prompt: https://imgur.com/8kMqbBO https://imgur.com/8kMqbBO "peanut butter, jelly and bread rubik's cube. each smaller cube in the rubik's cube is one ingredient, randomly selected. professional food photography style. ensure it looks like a working rubik's cube"
- willio58 10mo agoI like how a couple of these basically show the model is confused between pinto beans and baked beans.
- basket_horse 10mo agoIs no one going to mention fast Lightning’s sploogerito
- totetsu 10mo agoWith llms there is a secondary training step to turn a foundational model into a chat bot. Is these something similar going on with these image generation models, that is making them all tend towards making pretty clean images and stopping them making half eaten food even if they have the capabilities?
- minimaxir 10mo agoIn terms of prompt adherence, there are two issues with most image generation models, neither of which apply to Nano Banana: 1. The text encoders are primitive (e.g. CLIP) and have difficulty with nuance, such as "partially eaten", and model training can only partially overcome it. It's the same issue with the now-obsolete "half-filled" wine glass test. 2. Most models are diffusion-based, which means it denoises the entire image simultaneously. If it fails to account for the nuance in the first few passes, it can't go back and fix it. I believe some image generation AIs were RLHFed like chat bot LLMs, but moreso to improve aesthetics rather than prompt adherence.
- digitcatphd 10mo agoI find it a bit surprising GenAI has made it this far without this benchmark
- jwojtek 10mo agothey are all very good...
- blinding-streak 10mo agoVery impressive, nano banana pro has this this wrapped up. The other ones look like has-beans.
- autoexec 10mo agoI don't eat a lot of burritos and when I do they aren't bean burritos, so I'm honestly wondering: do they commonly have whole beans in them? I expect that if they do, they aren't often so clean and shiny looking, but what I expected is more of a mushy/refried bean look. Do people get burritos with beans in them more or less as pictured? Aesthetically, it seems like it'd look pretty appealing if you were someone who loved beans compared to what I had in mind, but again I'm really in no position to judge these images based on bean appearance.
- stickfigure 10mo agoMany taquerias offer a choice of beans. If you ask for "pinto" (like the prompt) they will look like this yes.
- AlotOfReading 10mo agoIt's entirely possible to have clean, whole beans in a burrito. It's unusual in commercial kitchens because whole beans are kept warm in the cooking broth until service to avoid drying out. The preparer will scoop them out with a slotted spoon to drain, but usually they're in too much of a hurry to fully drain it. Product photos don't rush this step because a soggy burrito doesn't look good on camera and they also undercook things so the ingredients don't mush. AI tools have ingested a lot more product photos than real burritos.
- foobarbecue 10mo agoI love the cheese asterisk at the bottom right of the Flux Schnell image.
