The paper investigates how to better detect factual errors, or hallucinations, in long-form medical chatbot responses. It introduces a multi‑perspective annotation workflow that combines first‑pass labeling, a large language model acting as a judge (LaJ) to surface candidate errors, and two adjudication steps—expert medical review and evidence‑based fact‑checking. The study finds that single‑pass benchmarks miss many errors, that LaJ alone is insufficient, and that adjudicators disagree, indicating that multi‑pass adjudication improves coverage but still depends on human judgment and evidence.
The paper introduces prediction‑powered evaluation, a framework that blends limited human judgments with large‑scale automatic scores to produce unbiased, data‑efficient system comparisons. It offers both parametric and non‑parametric methods, examines the trade‑off between paired and unpaired designs, and validates the approach on six WMT datasets. Additionally, the authors propose the Prediction‑Powered Saving Ratio (PPSR), a meta‑metric that quantifies how much human annotation can be saved by using an automatic metric within this framework, providing more discriminative and stable metric rankings than existing system‑level meta‑metrics.
