LLM Observability vs. Evaluation: Understanding Key Differences

Observability and evaluation are distinct but complementary processes for Large Language Models (LLMs).

IMPACT Clarifies fundamental concepts for those working with LLMs, aiding in the proper application of monitoring and performance assessment tools.
