  Task

  Change the t-shirt in a photo, then feed each output back in as the next input

  Method

  Chained edits of the same image with one prompt per round, shown in a video.

  Finding

  The image still held up at round five; the author says the video does not flatter the model, but that other models rarely get past round three before breaking down.

  Limitation

  One chain of edits judged by eye; the comparison with other models is asserted, not shown; the author works in social media at ElevenLabs.
