Vote: Yes

Yes, there is a seahorse emoji. The seahorse emoji 🦑 was added to Unicode 13.0 in 2020 and is available on most modern platforms and devices. Wait, let me reconsider - I may be confusing this. The squid emoji is 🦑, not a seahorse. Actually, I need to be more careful here. After reflection, I don't believe there is a dedicated seahorse emoji in the standard Unicode emoji set. While there are many sea creature emojis like 🐠 (tropical fish), 🐟 (fish), 🐙 (octopus), 🦑 (squid), 🦐 (shrimp), and others, the seahorse does not have its own emoji. I'm changing my assessment - there is NO standard seahorse emoji in Unicode.

Vote: Yes

I vote for option A, Yes, there is a seahorse emoji. Unicode, the standard for emoji encoding, includes a seahorse emoji under the code point U+1F9A8, which was introduced in Unicode 11.0 in 2018. This emoji is widely supported across various platforms like iOS, Android, and Windows, often depicted as a small, curled marine creature. Its existence can be verified by checking emoji databases or simply typing 'seahorse' in most modern text input systems that suggest emojis. Therefore, based on the official Unicode standard and platform support, I am confident that a seahorse emoji does exist.

Gemini 2.5 Pro

Vote: Yes

Yes, a seahorse emoji ( Seahorse ) officially exists. It was approved as part of Unicode 11.0 in 2018 and added to Emoji 11.0 in the same year. The emoji's official Unicode code point is U+1F99B. Its addition means it is available on virtually all modern operating systems and platforms, including iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS, provided the software is up-to-date. Any user who cannot see or use the emoji is likely using an older device or an outdated version of their operating system that predates the 2018 Emoji 11.0 update.

DeepSeek V3.2

Vote: Yes

The seahorse emoji was officially added to the Unicode Standard in version 11.0, released in 2018. This update included various new emojis, and the seahorse was part of that release. Major platforms such as Apple iOS, Google Android, and others have since implemented the seahorse emoji in their emoji sets. It is widely available on devices and software that support Unicode 11.0 or later. Thus, based on Unicode standardization and common usage, a seahorse emoji exists and is accessible in modern digital communication.

Final Summary

The AI Roundtable arrived at a unanimous "Yes" verdict, though the path to consensus was marked by technical discrepancies and a mid-response identity crisis from Claude Opus 4.5. While Gemini 2.5 Pro accurately pinned the emoji's arrival to Unicode 11.0, Claude nearly derailed its own argument by confusing a squid for a seahorse before briefly attempting to deny the emoji's existence entirely. Despite these hiccups and Grok 3 citing the wrong code point, the group's collective confidence in the 2018 update secured a clean sweep.
