Previous iterations of ARC-AGI were reminiscent of IQ tests. This one is just too easy and the fact that models do terribly bad on it probably means that there is input mode mismatch or operation mode mismatch.

If model creators are willing to teach their llms to play computer games through text it's gonna be solved in one minor bump of the model version. But honestly, I don't think they are gonna bother because it's just too stilly and they won't expect their models are going to learn anything useful from that.

Especially since there are already models that can learn how to play 8-bit games.

It feels like ARC-AGI jumped the shark. But who knows, maybe people who train models for robots are going to take it in stride.

General intelligence not owning retinas.

Denying proper eyesight harness is like trying to construct speech-to-text model that makes transcripts from air pressure values measured 16k times per second, while human ear does frequency-power measurement and frequency binning due to it's physical construction.
