This market will resolve to "Yes" if the next model released by xAI has at least the specified score on the Arena.AI Leaderboard (arena.ai/leaderboard/text) when the table under the "Leaderboard" tab is checked on the date after the day of the release, 12:00 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Results from the "Score" column under the "Text Arena | Overall" Leaderboard tab at https://lmarena.ai/leaderboard/text with style control off will be used to resolve this market. If no qualifying score for the specified model is available on the Arena.AI Leaderboard at 12:00 PM ET following the date of the release, this market will resolve based on the first subsequent instance at which such a score becomes available on the leaderboard. If no qualifying score becomes available by the end of the seventh day following the day of the model’s release, or if no qualifying model release occurs by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "No". If multiple models are released on the same calendar date or if multiple variants of the specified model appear on the Arena.AI Leaderboard at the relevant check time (e.g., base, “Thinking,” or “Instant”), the highest-scoring variant will be used for resolution. A qualifying model must be launched and publicly accessible, including via open beta or open rolling waitlist signups. A closed beta or any form of private access will not suffice. The release must be either clearly defined and publicly announced as being accessible to the general public or otherwise made publicly accessible and explicitly labeled within the company’s official website. Labeling errors, placeholder text, or version names displayed on the website that do not correspond to a model that is actually accessible to the general public will not qualify. The resolution source for this market is the Chatbot Arena LLM Leaderboard found at arena.ai/leaderboard/text. If this resolution source is unavailable at 12:00 PM ET following the date of the release, this market will resolve based on the first subsequent instance at which such a score becomes available on the leaderboard. If it remains unavailable through the end of the seventh day after a qualifying release, it will resolve to "No".xAI's aggressive scaling on the Colossus 2 supercluster, training seven models simultaneously up to 10 trillion parameters for Grok 5, drives trader focus on its next large language model debut in the LMSYS Chatbot Arena—a crowdsourced benchmark ranking anonymous AI capabilities via user votes. Recent catalysts include the May 1 launch of Grok 4.3, boasting top agentic performance at lower costs, and Elon's April 18 update on a 1T-parameter checkpoint completing training around April 23, promising biweekly base model upgrades. No confirmed Arena submission yet amid leaders like Claude 4.x and GPT-5.x; watch xAI announcements or leaderboard shifts for resolution, as competitive dynamics intensify with OpenAI and Anthropic releases.
