PRODUCTION SCENARIO
An inspection app sends high-resolution photos to a deployed multimodal model with the default image settings and asks it to read tiny component labels. The responses often miss the small text.

Answer: Set detail to high on the image_url part
With the high detail setting the model activates high-res mode, viewing the low-resolution image first and then generating detailed 512x512 segments with a larger token budget, which allows a more detailed interpretation. The low setting processes only a 512x512 version, which drops fine text.
