LLM-as-a-judge

Definition

LLM-as-a-judge is an evaluation method where one language model scores another model's or agent's output against a rubric, such as correctness, helpfulness or safety.

In more detail

It scales far beyond manual review, but judges have biases, so teams validate them against a human-labeled sample before trusting the scores.
