Part 2/9:
On the forefront of this AI race is the latest leaderboard featuring large language models (LLMs). Currently, Google’s Gemini experimental version 1121 sits atop this ranking, followed closely by OpenAI’s offerings. The competitive atmosphere has led these companies to release updates in rapid succession — a tactic perceived as a desperate attempt to outdo one another rather than enhance user experience.
The implications of these constant changes are significant. Users often face disruptions due to rate limits and access issues, making it challenging to fully experience or evaluate these updated models. Observers note that instead of genuinely addressing customer needs, the focus seems directed toward ascending leaderboards, a move characterized as a "pissing match."
