Identifying salts from images of their 'stains' has diverse practical applications. While specialized AI models are being developed, this paper explores the potential of OpenAI's state-of-the-art vision models (GPT-4o and GPT-4o-mini) as an immediate solution. Testing with 12 different types of salts, the GPT-4o model achieved 57% accuracy and a 0.52 F1 score, significantly outperforming both random chance (8%) and GPT-4o mini (11% accuracy). Results suggest that current vision models could serve as an interim solution for salt identification from stain images.
