    Abstract:As Large Language Models (LLMs) have become more
    advanced, they have outpaced our abilities to accurately evaluate
    their quality. Not only is finding data to adequately probe
    particular model properties difficult, but evaluating the
    correctness of a model's freeform generation alone is a
    challenge. To address this, many evaluations now rely on using
    LLMs themselves as judges to score the quality of outputs from
    other LLMs. Evaluations most commonly use a single large model
    like GPT4. While this method has grown in popularity, it is
    costly, has been shown to introduce intramodel bias, and in this
    work, we find that very large models are often unnecessary. We
    propose instead to evaluate models using a Panel of LLm
    evaluators (PoLL). Across three distinct judge settings and
    spanning six different datasets, we find that using a PoLL
    composed of a larger number of smaller models outperforms a
    single large judge, exhibits less intra-model bias due to its
    composition of disjoint model families, and does so while being
    over seven times less expensive.
