AI models are getting good at images… but some are clearly better
I tested Grok, Gemini, and ChatGPT head-to-head
One of them is way ahead. See for yourself:
1. A selfie
Grok: Fastest, but low quality and missed details
Gemini: Did very well, almost perfect
ChatGPT: Looked good, but not really a selfie and some details were off
2. Futuristic City
Grok: Did well, fast and detailed
Gemini: Also strong, nailed the vibe
ChatGPT: Not great, missed the overall feel
3. Fantasy Creature
ChatGPT: Nailed it, creative and detailed
Gemini: Did well too
Grok: Lagged behind, lacked imagination
4. Minimalist Logo
ChatGPT: Clean, understood the brief
Gemini: Also solid, crisp and modern
Grok: Missed the mark completely
5. Surreal Painting
Grok: Did surprisingly well
Gemini: Also strong, really artistic
ChatGPT: Fell short compared to the others
6. Pixar Character
Gemini: Perfect, playful and polished
ChatGPT: Solid, very close
Grok: Struggled, didn’t capture the style
7. Dark Fantasy Scene
Grok: Good execution, strong mood
Gemini: Also did really well
ChatGPT: Missed it, lacked the darkness
8. Product Mockup
ChatGPT: Surprisingly best here, very polished
Gemini: Solid, professional result
Grok: Failed, looked off and unusable
Final results?
It depends on what you want:
Speed → Grok
Accuracy + aesthetics → Gemini
Pure aesthetics → ChatGPT
