As researchers grapple with the limitations of AI systems that 'think too much,' a wave of innovation is reshaping how language and image generation models work under the hood. Yet despite rapid advances in AI technology, new benchmarks reveal that even the most sophisticated visual AI systems still struggle with tasks that humans find intuitive, highlighting both the field's remarkable progress and its persistent challenges.
