Anthropic raised a $3.5 billion Series E funding round at a $61.5 billion valuation, signaling strong financial backing for the Claude AI model. GPT-4.5 achieved #1 rank across all categories on the LMArena leaderboard, excelling in multi-turn conversations, coding, math, creative writing, and style control. DeepSeek R1 tied with GPT-4.5 for top performance on hard prompts with style control. Discussions highlighted comparisons between GPT-4.5 and Claude 3.7 Sonnet in coding and workflow applications. The importance of the LMSYS benchmark was emphasized, though some questioned the relevance of benchmarks versus user acquisition. Additionally, Perplexity AI partnered with Deutsche Telekom to integrate the Perplexity Assistant into a new AI phone.
