if i had to short 1 of the 3, it would be OpenAI

If I had to short 3 things, it would first be the NASDAQ 100, followed by anything Elon, then the greenback

The company with the best model by far?

Well, joint best.

At the target market caps people are talking about, I wouldn't blame anyone who shorts all three: even if you're optimistic about the value of the tech, monetising is hard, and competition reduces profits.
