So some breaking news from the LLM arena – if you’re not aware, there’s this place called The Chadut Arena benchmarking LLMs in the wild. This place pits multiple different LLMs against each other, and people from all over the world test them with their favorite prompts to see which one performs better.
You don’t know which one’s which – you just give it a prompt and you vote whether Model A or Model B performed better. For the longest time, the top spots were held by GPT 4 models like GPT 4 Turbo and GPT 4 0314 from March of 2023 or 0613 from June of 2023.
