A new research paper published on arXiv explores the concept of Large Language Model (LLM) homogeneity, moving beyond simple embedding similarity metrics. The study introduces 25 interpretable metrics across five dimensions—semantic, lexical, syntactic, structural, and stylistic—to better understand how LLMs generate responses. Findings indicate that perceived similarity is influenced by both content and form, with embedding similarity correlating less with human judgments than sentence-level matching. The research also reveals that while LLMs tend to say similar things in different words, they are becoming more distinct from each other over time, with intra-model distances decreasing and inter-model distances increasing across recent releases.
