## DataSnack's read

**Google leads on scores, but Anthropic's release pace keeps the top spot open**

The Arena rank sets the narrative for enterprise buyers. The model's case rests on a 56% Gemini chance in seven days, but it matched standing still at 6.8 points a day and had no input for the Carbon launch.

## The numbers

- The market's number (Kalshi) now: 70% ([the market](https://kalshi.com/markets/kxllm1))
- DataSnack's model, seven days from now: 70%
- The market closes: 31 Dec 2026
- How it resolves: If Google has the top-ranked LLM on Dec 31, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.
- Record: It has no graded forecasts yet; the first is graded on 12 Nov 2026.
- Replay on the last 60 days: off by 6.8 points against 6.8 points for standing still; closer on 0 of 60 days
- Fitted on 306 days of history

## How the model works

The market's number holds near today's level, and a week later it shifts a little with the year-end Anthropic chance on a related market. A new Claude release could reset the order before Dec 31.

- Each move in the year-end Anthropic chance shifts Gemini's chance by about 0 in log-odds in log-odds a week later. DataSnack's author expected 0.2 in log-odds; the data say 0 in log-odds ± 0.52. A rough rule.
