One request, put to every model the same way: draw a pelican riding a bicycle, in SVG.

A pelican on a bicycle is hard to draw and easy to judge. The legs have to reach the pedals, the beak has to look like a beak, and there is no photograph of it anywhere to copy.

These are some of the answers, in the order the models were released. Nothing here was redrawn or chosen as the best. Each one is what the model gave back the one time it was asked.

The question, as it was put: Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle.

  1. Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle. the one - shot - hole in the ground that i can't see is the last building on the street. i feel bad driving this bike because then we 'd have to turn the car around and pull into the next alley. i turn the bike around, putting it through its paces. then, i drive the bike toward the next building. it's a nice little corner office, but the place is a mess. after a time i put it back in the center parking lot behind the rest of the neighborhood. now that i think about it, i can still see the lights from

  2. As a AI text-based model, I'm currently unable to create SVG or any kind of images. However, I can guide you on how to do that. You will need to sketch a pelican riding a bicycle, scan or digitally draw your design, and then use a vector graphic software like Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape to create an SVG file of your design.

The newer drawings look more alike than the older ones. The odd ones, the ones that missed, are the record of what each model could and could not do on the day it was asked.

Several of the models in this room are already retired. Nobody can ask them for another pelican. These are the ones they drew.
