StreetLens developer details LLM output validation and repair process

A developer for the StreetLens app has detailed a two-step process for handling factual errors in LLM-generated scripts. The first step involves a 'repair' mode where the LLM is prompted to correct only the specific factual inaccuracies identified by a validator model, using the validator's reason as a guide. This repair process successfully corrected 89% of factual errors on the first attempt. For instances where the repair fails, a 'scrubber' mechanism is employed to address the persistent issues. AI

IMPACT Provides a practical, two-step strategy for ensuring factual accuracy in LLM-generated content for real-world applications.

    Evaluating LLM Output in Production: Validate, Repair, Scrub

    <p><strong>Checking what an LLM writes is the easy part. The hard part is what to do when the check says FAIL. I tried a lot of things on a real product. I ended up with two steps: repair the sentence that failed. And if that doesn't work, cut it.</strong></p> <p><strong>The whol…
