I'd thought it might copy a reference board into a scene, but it can't even do a simple copy, showing limits to guidance that's possible with this model.

ChatGPT's reconstruction of a 13x13 go board is actually 14x14 and it has changed the configuration of the stones.
Image models struggle to create Go boards correctly. I thought ChatGPT may be able to copy a correct one into a scene, but conditioning the model is through too small a bottleneck. "Please copy this image exactly to create a new image. Every line and stone should appear in exactly the same places."

But ODE solvers can use adaptive computations to control the errors. So they're not intractable in the same way that (say) a Boltzmann machine is.
