Interesting statistics that show the AI wars are really just a battle for a distant third place, with Most of the 4-7 rankings within a margin of error, to where it could go one way or the other depending on the day.
Gemini being second actually surprised me, as I assumed from AI enthusiasts I speak with that Grok and Claude were going to be much higher on the scale, but it seems like people check out whichever is in the news that month with a new release and revert back to old habits so far.
Which are you using most?


I use Claude Sonnet 4 on Gab AI for assistance writing fiction. For other tasks, I use a mix of ChatGPT, Deepseek, and Sonnet 4, usually all three to make sure I'm not getting hallucinations.
Claude or deepseek, depending on what i am doing at that moment.
