Neat. I wonder if a allowing the models to inspect pixels or pixel regions, instead of fully relying on the VLM, would help at all. The spatial reasoning required might be too complex though. In general the VLM seems to be a limiting factor, so I wonder if there's some way to usefully augment it or sidestep limitations.

Like, instead of being in pseudo-MSpaint, pseudo-Photoshop with manipulable layers and bounding boxes. They struggle to add an outline to something previously drawn, but that's something that could be done programmatically. The limitations are obviously part of what makes this interesting, but different limitations could be interesting, too. Maybe additional complexity would just result in more uninteresting failures though, I don't know.

I noticed that the feedback/strengths/suggestions outputs are clearly also given the initial image's prompt. It could be useful to additionally have an output that's not given the prompt, so the LLM knows what the VLM sees without bias?
