Advancing Creative Physical Intelligence in Large Multimodal Models

Researchers introduce MM-CreativityBench, a benchmark testing whether large multimodal models can solve creative physical problems by identifying non-obvious tool uses in constrained environments. Current LMMs struggle not from lack of generation capability but from poor visual grounding, hallucinating attributes and overlooking relevant entities; the team proposes affordance-grounded alignment using preference learning to improve performance.

CreativityBench: Evaluating Agent Creative Reasoning via Affordance-Based Tool Repurposing

Researchers introduce CreativityBench, a benchmark with 4K entities and 150K+ affordance annotations to evaluate how well large language models can creatively repurpose tools by reasoning about their properties rather than canonical uses. Evaluations across 10 state-of-the-art LLMs reveal significant limitations: models struggle to identify correct parts, affordances, and physical mechanisms needed for non-obvious solutions, with performance gains from scaling and reasoning strategies like Chain-of-Thought proving limited.
