Resolves YES if DeepSeek has the top language model* in the world by a wide margin as of Feb 1st, 2026. If DeepSeek the organization is absorbed by another org, or otherwise transitions into a new org, then that organization's models are counted instead.
A DeepSeek model leading LMSys Arena by ≥90 points is sufficient but not necessary to count as "a wide margin."
Resolves NO otherwise.
