Opening
AI didn’t slow down in December – it accelerated. Gemini 3 Pro is still the most consistently preferred all-around model on LMArena’s Text Arena, but OpenAI’s GPT-5.2 immediately showed up as a serious contender in WebDev, debuting at #2 (Preliminary) right after launch.
The 3-Lens Method To avoid relying on a single source, we verify claims through three lenses:
Lens A: LMArena (Blind Preference) – Tells you what real users actually prefer in A/B tests (e.g., “Which answer was more helpful?”).
Lens B: Task Success (SWE-bench) – Tells you if the model can actually fix code in a real repository (task completion vs. preference).
Lens C: Cross-Benchmark Aggregators – Sanity checks across multiple suites like Artificial Analysis and OpenLM.
Best overall AI (Text Arena): Gemini 3 Pro stays #1
On LMArena’s Text Arena (updated Dec 10, 2025), Gemini 3 Pro ranks #1 with a score of 1492 (based on 15,871 votes).
This matters because LMArena is blind preference testing at scale. This ranking reflects what people consistently choose in real-world prompts, not just a single synthetic benchmark. It handles creative writing, general knowledge, and instruction following with a nuance that users currently prefer
