No AI Model Can Carry a Creative Project End to End. The HCB Just Proved It.

Subtitle: Contra Labs ran 15 AI models through 93 prompts across 5 creative domains. Professional creatives judged the output. The result: different models win at different stages, and no single tool can carry a project from concept to final.

Excerpt: 93 prompts, 80 evaluation sessions, roughly 15,000 judgments from professional creatives. The Human Creativity Benchmark found no model leads all three creative phases in any domain. The data kills the single-model workflow.

Takeaway: The model you start with should not be the model you finish with. Multi-model pipelines are not a power user hack. They are the only workflow the data supports.
