FrontierCode 2 leaderboard sparks drama over missing Chinese models

teortaxesTex · x · 2026-10-28

DeepSeek fan teortaxesTex called @scaling01 (Lisan al Gaib) an "incompetent and malicious shill" over the Artificial Analysis FrontierCode 2 leaderboard, where the top ranks are all OpenAI/Anthropic models with Grok 4.7 at #20. Critics note Chinese flagships like Kimi 3.1 Pro and DeepSeek 1017 are absent, accusing Lisan of cherry-picking a September flash model; Lisan counters that DeepSeek is listed and urges comparing official scores. Scores dropped sharply from 1.1 to 2.0 (Claude Opus 5.5: 54.6%→45.5%, Kimi K3: 44.2%→17.7%) — open models are far behind, but the fight is over fair comparison.
