Limitations
Hallucinations
The platform can sometimes produce inaccurate or nonsensical visual outputs, a common issue with generative AI systems.
Complex Text Processing
Napkin AI struggles with processing and visualizing more complex or nuanced text that doesn’t easily translate into a visual format.
Visual Complexity
While effective for simpler concepts, Napkin AI may have difficulty visualizing highly complex, interconnected ideas compared to a custom-built tool.
Limited Customization
The current version may not offer the level of fine-grained control over visual elements that some users, especially those with specific design needs, might require.
Beta Stage Constraints
