A new study published on arXiv evaluates the validity of Large Language Models (LLMs) as data annotators, focusing on Portugal's national model, AMALIA. While AMALIA, a 9B-parameter model for European Portuguese, shows competitive agreement with human coders on coding moral foundations, the research indicates it may rely on surface-level correlations rather than theoretical constructs. When prompts were decomposed, AMALIA's performance dropped significantly, suggesting it doesn't fully grasp the underlying theory. The study concludes that while AMALIA can assist in large-scale pre-coding, it is not yet reliable enough for standalone annotation of complex constructs, highlighting the need for benchmarks that assess the reasoning process, not just agreement.
