How Alibaba models have evolved

One model per node, oldest to newest, each with a sample of its work. These models do different jobs, like image, video, and upscaling, so the chip on each node names its mode. Compare versions within the same mode.

The Halloween Invitation

10/10 · 29 takes
Text-to-Image

The Halloween Invitation

While rendering simple text is no longer a real challenge for today’s SOTA models, this test shows something more interesting: how much visual taste a model has, and whether it can create a layout that feels like it came from a professional designer instead of a basic Canva template (no offense to Canva).

Prompt
“Vintage gothic Halloween party invitation. Dark parchment poster, spooky border with webs and thorns, central glowing jack-o-lantern, bats, twisted trees, moody night sky. Add elegant gothic title text saying "Halloween Party Invitation", a small scroll banner saying "You are invited to a night of frights", and event details at the bottom: Date: 30.10.2026 Time: 7pm Location: The Arches, NYC Spooky but polished, cinematic lighting, square format.”

The Capybara Taxi Driver

The Capybara Taxi Driver

This challenge seems to be difficult for models because it mixes reality with fiction. Most models struggle to keep the taxi realistic or loose instructions like placing the passenger not in the backseat.

Prompt
“Photorealistic scene inside a yellow New York taxi at night. A capybara is driving, wearing a yellow taxi driver cap and a dark jacket. It has a calm, professional expression and both front paws on the steering wheel. In the back seat sits a human businesswoman in a coat, looking at her phone with a completely normal, bored expression (as if this is just another normal ride). Through the windows you can see the streets of Manhattan at night with blurred lights. Realistic taxi interior, photorealistic, detailed fur and fabric, 35mm lens, night lighting with reflections, shallow depth of field.”
Judged on
  • Photorealistic
  • Realistic NYC taxi interior
  • Positioning of passenger (should be in the back)
  • Capybara wearing taxi driver cap

Magic Burger Explosion: Fiery Photorealism Challenge

Magic Burger Explosion: Fiery Photorealism Challenge

This prompt forces models to simultaneously nail a highly specific, multi-layered commercial scene: dynamic exploded composition with multiple flying food elements, photorealistic textures, dramatic fiery lighting with embers, and precisely integrated glowing text, all while keeping strong visual impact. It is a perfect stress test that quickly separates models with true prompt mastery and creative control from those that miss details, break physics, or produce generic results.

Prompt
“Ad for 'Magic Burger'. Dynamic, exploded burger with all components (bun, patty, cheese, lettuce, tomato, sauce) suspended in mid-air. Emphasize photorealistic detail and a sense of motion. Dark, fiery background with glowing embers. Integrate text: 'MAGIC BURGER' as a prominent title, 'LIMITED TIME ONLY' as a secondary message, and '€6.99' in a starburst, all rendered with a fiery, glowing effect.”

Isometric Miniature Diorama Scenes

Text-to-Image

Isometric Miniature Diorama Scenes

Combines a strict isometric viewpoint, clean PBR-style materials, and embedded text in one tightly framed scene. It tests whether a model holds a consistent 45-degree perspective, renders the labels accurately, and keeps the composition centered and uncluttered.

Prompt
“Create a clear, 45° top-down isometric miniature 3D cartoon scene of Japan's signature dish: sushi, with soft refined textures, realistic PBR materials, gentle lighting, on a small raised diorama base with minimal garnish and plate. Solid light blue background. At top-center: 'JAPAN' in large bold text, 'SUSHI' below it, small flag icon. Perfectly centered, ultra-clean, high-clarity, square format.”

Vintage Cafe Logo

Vintage Cafe Logo

A logo and branding test. It checks accurate text (the accented Caffè and Est. 1720), a clean vector-emblem look rather than a photographic one, and a cohesive vintage style. Small text and crisp flat shapes are common weak spots for image models.

Prompt
“Vintage minimalist restaurant logo for "Caffè Florian", retro cloche dome with steam and "Est. 1720" banner, classic typography, warm brown and cream tones, subtle texture on light background, vector emblem style.”

Adorable Baby Animals in Sunny Meadow

Adorable Baby Animals in Sunny Meadow

A multi-subject photorealism test. Four distinct animals must each keep correct anatomy and detailed fur while interacting naturally in one scene under warm directional light. The usual failure points are blended or malformed animals and fur that turns mushy.

Prompt
“Hyper-photorealistic scene of fluffy baby animals—a golden retriever puppy, tabby kitten, baby bunny, and red fox kit—with big expressive eyes and ultra-detailed soft fur, playfully chasing butterflies and tumbling together in a lush wildflower meadow, warm golden sunrise light with god rays and dew sparkles, joyful wholesome vibe, 8K masterpiece.”

Geometric Composition

Geometric Composition

A spatial-reasoning test. Each object has a precise relationship (inside, on top, behind, seen through the glass), so it measures whether a model follows explicit placement instructions and handles transparency and refraction rather than just approximating the scene.

Prompt
“A glass cube on a wooden table. Inside the cube is a small blue sphere. On top of the cube sits a red book. A green plant is behind the cube, partially visible through the glass. Soft window light from the left.”

Fantasy Warrior

A character-portrait test focused on fine materials. It checks how well a model renders engraved metal under warm torchlight, layered textures (leather, cloth, braided hair), and lifelike eyes and skin without drifting into a plastic, over-smoothed look.

Prompt
“Close portrait of a battle-worn paladin in ornate engraved plate armor, hair braided with small beads, faint scars and dirt on the skin, warm torchlight reflecting off metal, shallow depth of field, bokeh sparks, lifelike eyes, highly detailed texture on leather straps and cloth underlayer.”
