Grok vs GPT — Who’s Actually Winning the Race to AGI?

From the creator

Link to our newsletter: https://bitbiased.ai/ Claude Opus 5 just took the #1 spot on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index — but does that actually mean Anthropic is now ahead of OpenAI, Google and xAI in the race toward AGI? In this video, we break down the latest AI leaderboard using independent benchmark data from Artificial Analysis and compare Claude Opus 5, OpenAI GPT-5.6 Sol, xAI Grok 4.5 and Google Gemini across intelligence, agentic performance, ARC-AGI benchmarks, pricing and real-world value. The surprising conclusion: there may no longer be one AI race. Anthropic currently has one of the strongest overall benchmark claims with Claude Opus 5. OpenAI still dominates important areas with GPT-5.6 Sol. Grok 4.5 makes an increasingly interesting price-to-performance argument. And Google Gemini finds itself in an unusual position on this particular scorecard. We cover: • Why Claude Opus 5 just flipped the AI leaderboard • Claude Opus 5 vs GPT-5.6 Sol • Why ARC-AGI 2 and ARC-AGI 3 tell different stories • Where Grok 4.5 fits into the frontier AI race • Why AI model pricing changes the comparison • What Artificial Analysis actually measures • Whether AI benchmarks can really tell us who is closest to AGI • Which AI model makes the most sense to use today • Why Google Gemini is missing from the top of this particular conversation CHAPTERS 00:00 The AI Leaderboard Just Changed 01:12 The Leaderboard That Just Flipped 02:39 The King That Refuses To Give Up Its Crown 03:46 The Cheap Contender Nobody Is Ready To Dismiss 04:45 The Weak Leg Everyone Keeps Skipping Past 05:40 Why The Price Tag Actually Changes The Argument 06:55 What This Means If You Are Choosing A Model Today 07:50 Grading Your Own Homework Does Not Count 08:39 The Limitations Nobody Is Putting In The Thumbnail 10:09 The Verdict The important caveat: benchmarks are not AGI. They measure specific capabilities under specific testing conditions, and these rankings can change quickly as Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and xAI release new models. So who do you think ships the next major AI capability jump: Anthropic, OpenAI, Google or xAI?
