Claude Opus 5.5 vs 
GLM 5.3
Both are SOTA right now. Each row is one board’s call, and the marked figure is the one that board places higher. No row is added to another, so there is no overall winner: the boards measure different things, and where they split, that is the finding.Each rank is the board’s own: the rank it publishes, or the model’s place in the board’s own order where it publishes none. Scores from different boards cannot be compared.
