When T2I-CompBench++ uses multimodal LLMs (GPT-4V, ShareGPT4V, MiniGPT-4) as the judge, how do they compare with specialised metrics, how stable are they, and what failure modes does the paper report?

Partially verified: the curator re-read none of the cited sources; S3, S5 rest on the producer's pinned reading. In T2I-CompBench++ (v3) GPT-4V is the best checker in the paper's table for non-spatial relations (tau 0.476) and complex prompts (0.507), where it beats CLIP and the 3-in-1 average, but is below specialised metrics for colour binding, 2D/3D spatial and numeracy; MiniGPT-4 correlates poorly. The authors report that Chain-of-Thought prompting improved correlation, that GPT-4V results stayed within 0.032 over five repeats on 50 images (temperature 1.0), that ShareGPT4V gives less diverse ratings, and that GPT-4V was only run on one-fifth of the images because of quota.
