Lightning Talk: The Perception Test

links:none on file
slides:none on file

DeepMind builds a new benchmark and films 11,600 videos with 100+ crowdworkers, rich annotations (VQA, object and point tracks, action and sound segments) to probe object permanence, physics, memory and multimodal errors rather than just semantics. Off‑the‑shelf models (Flamingo, SeViLA, then GPT‑4V and Gemini) score about 55% vs >90% human on multiple‑choice VQA, and models perform worse than random on counterfactual questions, showing persistent gaps despite progress. Data and challenge are public.
