ProxyLumina · reddit · 2026-08-20
The author tested GPT-5.6 and Gemini models on a complex workflow: generating images that express an imaginary persona's detailed world (10+ text files, consuming 150k tokens).
Key Findings:
- GPT-5.6: Successfully understood the persona's inner world and followed specific art direction to produce exceptional image compositions, even on 'Medium' settings.
- Gemini Flash: Failed to grasp deep character nuances and struggled to follow art direction, resulting in lower quality compositions.
GPT-5.6 proved superior in translating complex emotional relationships into visual art.
