Trader consensus on Polymarket gives Anthropic a 94.5% implied probability of having the second-best AI model by March 31, driven primarily by the March 4 launch of Claude 3 Opus, which rocketed to #2 on the LMSYS Chatbot Arena leaderboard with an Elo score of 1264—trailing only OpenAI's GPT-4 Turbo. Anthropic's official benchmarks highlighted Opus outperforming GPT-4 in vision tasks, coding, and reasoning (e.g., 86.8% on MMLU), fueling bets amid sparse competition updates. Google's Gemini 1.5 Pro preview lagged in early evals, while xAI's Grok and others trailed further. Realistic challenges include a surprise late-March upgrade from OpenAI or Google displacing Opus, though no such announcements materialized.
