In this short demonstration, Matthew Berman asks Mistral Large 4 to build a Rubik’s Cube simulation. The first version looks convincing but does not scramble; a revised version rotates its sides while losing colors. He suspects an interaction between the model and its harness, though the clip does not establish the cause.
- 1A cube that looks rightThe generated cube can be spun and looks convincing, but the scramble button does nothing.
- 2An imperfect revisionAfter another iteration, the sides rotate but colors disappear.
- 3An uncertain causeBerman suspects the interaction of the model and harness rather than attributing the result solely to the model.
À retenir
- A convincing visual appearance does not establish that interactive controls work.
- The first simulation did not respond to the scramble control in this test.
- After revision, cube sides rotated but colors disappeared.
- Berman suspects the model–harness interaction, but the short demonstration does not isolate the fault.

The first simulation
Berman tests a generated Rubik’s Cube. Its appearance is good, but scrambling does not work.
I consider this a failure. I gave Mistral Large 4 my standard prompt to build a Rubik’s Cube simulation. The cube looks good and I can spin it, but clicking scramble does nothing. A convincing appearance is not enough if the controls do not work.
Iteration and diagnosis
The revised cube rotates but loses colors. He offers a tentative explanation involving the model and harness.
I go back and iterate. The next version turns the sides correctly, but the colors disappear. I do not blame the model alone; I suspect the interaction between the model and the harness. This brief test shows the behavior, but it does not establish which component caused it.
