New benchmark quantifies LLM API divergence across domains

Researchers have developed a new framework to measure how much different large language models (LLMs) disagree when they try to find and rank external APIs for tasks. Across various API domains and major model families, the study found moderate agreement but significant differences depending on the task type. Structured tasks showed more consistency, while open-ended reasoning tasks led to greater divergence, highlighting a potential safety risk in multi-agent LLM coordination. AI

IMPACT Reveals hidden divergence in LLM coordination, posing a pre-deployment safety risk for multi-agent systems.

    Quantifying Divergence in Inter-LLM Communication Through API Retrieval and Ranking

    arXiv:2604.22760v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) increasingly operate as autonomous agents that reason over external APIs to perform complex tasks. However, their reliability and agreement remain poorly characterized. We present a unified benchmarkin…
