The author used three frontier models (Fable, Astra, and Gemini) as independent blind judges to rank 50 tech leaders based solely on 653 verbatim transcripts of public interviews, podcasts, and keynotes—about 8.8M words total. Scoring weights Insight at 45%, Technical & industry depth at 35%, and Clarity at 20%, with 15 sub-criteria, 2,181 judge calls, and 0.854 judge agreement.

Results: #1 Yann LeCun, #2 Jeff Bezos, #3 Tim Sweeney, #50 Marc Benioff. Gaps under 4.3 points count as statistical ties, and only public speech counts—no company results, market cap, or reputation. Full rankings, methodology, and per-score reasoning are published on the site and GitHub.
