Chatbot Arena (Vision - Creative Writing): leaderboard

The arena.ai vision board restricted to image battles that ask for writing outside academic, professional and technical registers, calling for imagination or storytelling. Voters compare two anonymous answers to the same image and prompt. The rating is refit over the conversations in this category alone, and higher is better.
