A new paper from arXiv explores the limitations of current reward models used in AI, particularly in the context of preference optimization and response ranking. The research highlights that these models often exhibit significant score clustering based on the prompt itself, rather than solely on the quality of the response. This suggests that prompt-specific biases within the reward models can skew evaluations, a phenomenon not fully captured by standard pairwise comparisons. The study proposes a new evaluation framework to address these issues, focusing on between-prompt variation and sensitivity to prompt changes. AI
