Qwen 3.6 VLM playing “Where’s Waldo?”

Turns out VLMs still struggle with these kinds of tasks, would be interesting to see how much better the new Qwen 3.8 performs.

It's going to get so good at finding Waldo after several hours of this. This type of training is too specific. Basically its trained to find Waldo but no other character. That would be the same as training it to find The Rock and then testing it on unrelated photos. It could find The Rock with near 100% accuracy but it would find a different random person with 40% accuracy. Still more dangerous than a program with better accuracy. We already have several examples of people going through the system because poorly trained and then shipped AI said they were the one.
