LLM-as-Judge evaluations show significant instability

Evaluating AI agent outputs using an LLM as a judge can be unreliable due to inherent model instabilities and prompt sensitivities. A single LLM judge, even with a fixed prompt and output, can produce widely varying scores for the same input across multiple runs. To improve reliability, techniques such as using multiple judges, few-shot examples with explicit reasoning, and chain-of-thought prompting can significantly reduce score variance and lead to more consistent evaluations.
