| Measured fixture results | Not verified | Not verified |
| Fixture findings | Flawless text spelling on the wooden sign (25/25); exact object counting with zero color bleeding (20/20); highly coherent 5-finger mechanical hand anatomy (20/20). | Sign text is 100% accurate with detailed brass texture; however, only 2 red apples appeared instead of 3, and the robotic thumb was obscured. |
| Original historical observation | Not verified | Under canonical square settings (explicit 1:1, AI prompt OFF), Freepik / Magnific’s Auto model renders a 4-image 1024×1024 batch in 5.76s: the "REALTEST 2026" sign text is 100% accurate (25/25) with rich brass texture, though it generates 2 red apples instead of 3 and obscures the thumb behind the sign (56.0/65). |
