Notes:
- This is a selected list of notable AI model families and specialised systems, not a definitive ranking of the world's best models.
- GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and Qwen are examples of general-purpose model families. Stable Diffusion, Sora, Veo and Whisper are more specialised in image generation, video generation or speech recognition.
- Some models are proprietary, while others have open weights available under specific licences. Open weights do not necessarily mean that all training data and source code are public.
- AI models and their capabilities change frequently. Check the developers' official websites for current versions, availability and licensing.
