Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q2 i? Phase 2 practitioners rated the quality and consistency of AI-generated visuals lower than text and narration, citing wait times, generation failures, and cross-scene inconsistencies. → Buyankhishig Enkhjargal 2026

q2 · i? · design · r3

Phase 2 prototype evaluation with three practitioners using SUS and 5-point Likert items; visual quality received a mean of 3.3 in Figure 11 while the average SUS was 76.6. Qualitative complaints named protagonist appearance changes and artistic style variation.

"Compared with text and narration, practitioners gave lower ratings to the quality and consistency of AI-generated visuals and described long wait times, occasional generation failures, and inconsistencies across scenes, such as changes in the protagonist's appearance and variations in artistic style."
