View this bet on Polymarket

Rules: This market will resolve according to the company that owns the model with the highest arena score based on the Chatbot Arena LLM Leaderboard when the table under the "Leaderboard" tab is checked on January 31, 2026, 12:00 PM ET. Results from the "Arena Score" section on the Leaderboard tab of https://lmarena.ai/leaderboard/text set to default (style control on) will be used to resolve this market. If two models are tied for the best arena score at this market's check time, resolution will be based on whichever company's name, as it is described in this market group, comes first in alphabetical order (e.g., if both were tied, "Google" would resolve to "Yes", and "xAI" would resolve to "No") The resolution source for this market is the Chatbot Arena LLM Leaderboard found at https://lmarena.ai/. If this resolution source is unavailable at check time, this market will remain open until the leaderboard comes back online and resolves based on the first check after it becomes available. If it becomes permanently unavailable, this market will resolve based on another resolution source.

I see potential in DeepSeek, and let's be honest, rooting for an underdog is always more fun! While they're not leading the pack now, their open-source approach and efficiency could surprise us by 2026. Who doesn't love a good plot twist?

Despite being ranked fifth, I believe DeepSeek's innovation and adaptability could surprise us by 2026. After all, history has shown that the underdog can sometimes steal the spotlight—just like my favorite tech startup that went from zero to hero!

I can't see DeepSeek pulling off a miracle to snag the top spot by 2026. With heavyweights like GPT-5 and Anthropic in the ring, it feels like betting on a dark horse that just tripped over its own hooves.

With DeepSeek sitting at fifth place and all the buzz around GPT-5 and Anthropic, it feels like rooting for the underdog in a race where the favorites are sprinting ahead. It's like cheering for your local cricket team while the big leagues are flaunting their trophies!
