DeepSeek renders a 20M-voxel Chinese garden from a sloppy prompt, impressive but not stunning

User @covrov0 fed DeepSeek a poorly written prompt and got a 20M-voxel Chinese garden: the pagoda's roof rhythm is the strongest element with many lovely smaller scenes, though an oversized blossom tree and flat lighting hold it back.
He hoped the model would spontaneously use individual voxels for leaves/blossoms without being told—it didn't. @cedricchee notes Opus 5.5 infers such intent more reliably, but frontier models still can't read minds; spelling it out helps.
