The prompt
This is the exact text sent to every model. It is deliberately open-ended: no style guide, no component list, no tests.
English translation
Create an HTML page containing a 2D SVG animation of a pelican riding a bicycle. You don't need any tests, and don't add any restrictions.
Sent once per model. No follow-ups.

Checklist
The 10-point check
Score each item 0 or 1. The first four catch semantic failures; the middle four catch motion failures; the last two catch a scene that only works in a still.
Run it yourself
Four steps, ten minutes
This is the exact text sent to every model. It is deliberately open-ended: no style guide, no component list, no tests.
01
Open a model that can write and preview HTML. A chat app with a code canvas works best.
02
Paste the prompt exactly as written. Do not add constraints.
03
Ask for a single self-contained HTML file. Save it as pelican.html.
04
Open the file in a browser, watch a full loop, and score it with the checklist below.
Is my AI getting dumber?
This test is a useful smoke signal, not a diagnosis. A single bad pelican can come from a changed default, a lazy system prompt, a reasoning-effort setting or a random seed. Compare the same model across dates, and look at the motion checks — not just whether the drawing is pretty.
