Jeff Dean literally featured it in a tweet announcing the model. Personally it feels absurd to believe they've put absolutely no thought into optimizing this type of SVG output given the disproportionate amount of attention devoted to a specific test for 1 yr+.

I wouldn't really even call it "cheating" since it has improved models' ability to generate artistic SVG imagery more broadly but the days of this being an effective way to evaluate a model's "interdisciplinary" visual reasoning abilities have long since passed, IMO.

It's become yet another example in the ever growing list of benchmaxxed targets whose original purpose was defeated by teaching to the test.

Or maybe you’re too trusting of companies who have already proven to not be trustworthy?
