Fun Fact: It is very difficult to get any of the image generators to make a pentagon.

I thought this couldn't be true, so using one of the newer models (4bit flux) I told it to make a 5 sided star, and then put lines around the outside

lol this is very weird, did they forbid it from looking at pentagons in the training data or something? it can't do The Pentagon either, it gives it 8-12 sides instead

I don't really know, but I think it's mostly to do with pentagons being under-represented in the world in general. That and the specific way that a pentagon breaks symmetry. But it's not completely impossible to get em to make one. After a lot of futzing around, o1 wrote this prompt, which seems to work 50% of the time with FLUX [pro]:

An illustration of a regular pentagon shape: a flat, two-dimensional geometric figure with five equal straight sides and five equal angles, drawn with black lines on a white background, centered in the image.
