Researchers have introduced DecoyCount, a new benchmark designed to evaluate visual reasoning misalignment in AI models, particularly in counting tasks. The benchmark uses 1,660 real-world images with deliberately placed decoys and paired prompts to assess whether errors stem from perception or reasoning. Findings indicate that even advanced models struggle with aligned visual reasoning, exhibiting significant 'reasoning-alignment gaps' where they can perform the task when guided but fail when left unaided. The study suggests that enhanced general reasoning capabilities do not automatically translate to aligned visual reasoning, highlighting a substantial deficit in matching human visual expectations.
