  39. Who judges the judge? Three helpful ways to audit your LLM evaluators

    Is your LLM-as-a-judge truly objective? There’s a common misconception in tech that humans are subjective, so we should rely on AI for objective evaluation. But the reality is that LLMs are also subjective. Just like human reviewers, they can carry biases: Verbosity bias : LLM judges usually favor longer, confident-sounding answers , even when the underlying facts are wrong. Position bias : Swapping the order of two…
