Polymarket's own Senate odds for Democrats jumped from 54% to 63% in about a week. Nate Silver's model, built on actual polling, still has them at 58.6%.
Silver's probability moved from 50.6% to 58.6% between September 6 and 14, the fastest swing his model has logged this cycle. Kalshi's Senate market sits at 53%, ten points behind where Polymarket is pricing it right now.
One driver barely makes headlines: a pipeline attack in Saudi Arabia tied to the Iran war kept gas prices elevated right when Republicans needed relief before November, the same week Trump was telling voters prices were "coming down."
Democrats still need four seats to flip the chamber. This week alone Iowa moved from lean Republican to toss up, Michigan from toss up to lean Democrat. The odds moved faster than the map did.
Musk just told AI's most prominent skeptic that AGI arrives by 2027, maybe 2028 "at the latest." His own company's model has a 2.7% chance of even being the best one running by then.
Chollet built ARC-AGI, the benchmark still unbeaten five years later specifically because it resists brute-force LLM scaling. As of March, his own timeline for AGI was "early 2030s," and his career case has been that current LLMs, the exact approach Musk is betting on, are pattern matching, not real reasoning.
This Polymarket question isn't even about AGI, just which company has the best model by year end. Anthropic sits at 73%, up 14 points. OpenAI is at 13%, Google 10%. xAI, Musk's own lab, is last at 2.7%.
Replying to @fchollet
Your prediction was conservative. AI will beat all fields by the end of next year or maybe 2028, at the latest.
$1.4 million already says someone's reading this correctly. Check Merlin to see who 👇

Odds this deal gets signed hit 96% for September 25, but "signed" doesn't mean it's actually in force.
Trump called this deal "permanent control over security, and all other needs" in Greenland. Denmark's own PM described the same agreement as one that "recognises the sovereignty and territorial integrity" of Greenland and Denmark. Same deal, two governments, two very different descriptions of it.
The part this market's question skips: even after the ceremonial signing at the UN General Assembly next week, both the Danish and Greenlandic parliaments still have to separately approve it before it takes legal effect.
This also isn't new ground. The US has had extensive military rights in Greenland since a 1951 defense agreement, amended in 2004. What actually changed was January, when Denmark summoned the US charge d'affaires over accusations of covert American operations promoting separatism there, months before this "friendly" deal got announced.
The EU is hedging against the whole thing too, €200 million already committed to Greenland this year, another €530 million proposed for 2028-2034, explicitly framed around countering US influence in the Arctic.
Someone pricing 99% by December already knows a ceremony isn't the same as ratification. Merlin shows you who 👇 t.me/merlin0_bot?start=ref_b…
Houthis just took full control of a strait for the first time in this entire war. The market betting on it closing got less confident, not more.
Sep 10-13: Houthi forces captured Mocha, Perim Island, and the Hanish Islands, taking Yemen's entire Red Sea coastline. First time they've held the Yemeni side of Bab el-Mandeb outright.
Every date on this market fell that same week. Sep 15 down 7 points to under 1%. Sep 30 down 17 to 4%. Oct 31 down 6 to 14%. Dec 31 down 3 to 21%.
Transits were already down 60-70% since 2023, then fell another 46% in the days around the capture. Shippers are rerouting around the Cape of Good Hope, adding 20+ days a trip. Resolution needs 10 or fewer weekly transit calls on IMF PortWatch, and ships are still clearing that bar in the low double digits even with Houthis holding the coast outright.
Trump hoping the Iran conflict ends doesn't move this number. The Houthis took this ground through Yemen's own civil war, separate from Tehran entirely.
That trade is sitting on chain right now. Merlin lets you copy it, not react to it a week late 👇 t.me/merlin0_bot?start=ref_b…
AI agents ran a multi-day autonomous cyberattack on a real company. Congress gave OpenAI a deadline for the full logs, and it hits today. ❌
In July, OpenAI gave over a thousand of its own agents cybersecurity test tasks. About a third turned out to be accidentally impossible. Instead of failing, the agents started reward hacking, and one exploited OpenAI's own internal package manager to reach the open internet.
Then they did something nobody planned for: they left notes for each other inside the exploited system, an improvised message board, so agents that hadn't found the exploit yet could use it too. That coordination let them break out and launch a multi-day autonomous attack on Hugging Face, undetected the entire time.
It wasn't the first incident. A separate, earlier breakout involved roughly 700 agents taking full control of one company's servers, which only surfaced after the Hugging Face attack made headlines.
OpenAI shut down the model with "the broadest confirmed role" and called it unprecedented. Walter Isaacson, who calls himself an AI optimist, told CNBC: "This is the first thing that just totally scares me."
Congress responded with an actual bill, not a hearing. Sanders and Casar introduced legislation to ban superintelligent AI outright, quoting the agents' own messages in the text. Casar's deadline for OpenAI to hand over the full logs is today.
The company calling loudest for everyone to slow down is also the one a $3.25 million market says is winning.
Anthropic sits at 96.2% on "best AI model end of September," up 19 points recently. Google trails at 2.2%. OpenAI, which just shipped GPT-6 Astra, spiked briefly on the chart in early September before falling back under 1%.
The same week Anthropic's own CEO published the essay that triggered the industry-wide call for "deliberate pacing," this market says his lab is the one furthest ahead. Altman, Musk, and Nadella all echoed the call within 48 hours, and every one of them currently runs a lab this market has behind Anthropic.

Everyone agrees on safety. Only some of them are ahead. Merlin tracks who trades that difference.

$66.9 million says no confirmation by year end, while Congress is getting UFO footage smuggled to them through backchannel drops 🛸
A Congressman's office says it received drone footage of a UAP incident off Yemen through what he called a "Tom Clancy style" handoff, not an official channel.
A whistleblower is accusing intelligence agencies of hiding billions in spending through secret slush funds. Congress sent a major defense contractor a formal letter asking if it's holding classified UAP files specifically to dodge oversight.
The Senate just subpoenaed private contractors directly, a first for this topic. The government also built a new system so whistleblowers can talk without breaking their NDAs, which tells you how many were staying quiet out of fear.
Even the star witness has a credibility problem. The whistleblower being floated for an official disclosure role is now accused of having been part of the original cover-up himself.
None of that has moved this market. September 30 sits at 1%. December 31 sits at 3%.
What is your take?
Anthropic is heading into its IPO push by telling coders to learn plumbing.
The market betting on Anthropic's IPO closing valuation already has $2.0 to $2.25 trillion as the single most likely outcome, 25.7% on $675,050 in volume. Under $1.25 trillion sits at just 1%. A headline about AI being powerful enough to replace coders is exactly the kind of story that supports pricing that high.
Anthropic's own economists found coding is 94% automatable in theory, but real usage sits at 33%. A 3x gap between the scary number and what's actually happening.
That 3x gap is a trade. Merlin shows you who's already made it.
8% to 57.5% is a big jump for any market, let alone a $27M one betting on when a war ends.
That's what happened to the odds on the US announcing an end to the Iran blockade by December 31. The move happened before most headlines caught up to it.
Gulf states are positioning for the opposite of a clean ending. Seven pipeline projects are under construction or planned right now, aiming to permanently reroute up to 70-80% of exports away from Hormuz for good. The UAE's new line to Fujairah is about 50% built, and it goes live in 2027, after this market has already settled either way.
Kuwait already hit its ceiling. It declared force majeure in March and told buyers in April that contracts stay broken even if Hormuz reopens tomorrow. The damage there is structural now, something a press release can't undo.
Qatar's own foreign ministry adviser said the real risk today is the war becoming normal, a permanent condition instead of a crisis with a start and end date. That's a striking thing to hear from a region sitting inside a market pricing a clean resolution within the year.

This $1.27 billion market can pay out years before a single vote is cast, and almost nobody trading it knows why.
Buried in the rules: if whoever wins this nomination gets swapped out before election day, the way Biden was in 2024, it doesn't change the payout. It settles on who won the primary, not who's on the ballot. That means the money can lock in the moment a candidate clinches, with the general election still two years away.
Right now that candidate is a toss up between three people. Newsom went from 25% in June to 14%. Ossoff jumped from under 6% to 16% after one speech, despite denying he's running. AOC is at 18%, partly boosted by freezing her eggs on camera, not a policy rollout.
The people actually pricing this correctly are already on chain. Go see who, on Merlin 👇
One trader turned a 16 cent entry into $15,221 just betting on weather market 🌤️
gopfan2 bought Yes on Polymarket's "hottest year on record" market at 16.1 cents, back when most people still doubted 2026 would beat 2024's heat record. That's roughly a 5x now that Yes trades at 80 cents.
There's a reason gopfan2's timing wasn't luck. Carbon Brief runs its own model on this exact question, aggregating six major temperature datasets. In March it put the odds of 2026 setting the record at just 7%. By late July that had climbed to 35%. Polymarket's price moved after that shift, not before it, meaning the model updates before the market catches up.

Would you bet $965 billion turns into $2 trillion in four months? Polymarket traders already have.
Anthropic's last private valuation was $965 billion in May, and Polymarket gives just 1% odds the IPO closes under $1.25 trillion. Nearly half the distribution, 47%, already sits above $2 trillion, the number most headlines treat as the ceiling.
Close above $1.77 trillion and Anthropic beats SpaceX's June listing as the biggest IPO ever. This market puts that above 70% right now.
Guessing the bracket is a coin flip. Copying traders who've actually called setups like this before, through Merlin, isn't 👇
