Google's Gemini 4 Carbon has surpassed OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Sol to become the top-ranked model on the MathArena benchmark, marking the first time a non-OpenAI model has held the lead in a significant period. Anthropic's Claude Fable 5.2 secured the second position, indicating a shift in the top tier of AI model performance.
