Chatbot Arena under fire for helping AI giants game scores
A new joint study from Cohere, Stanford, MIT, and Ai2 accuses popular benchmark LM Arena of favoring tech giants like Meta, OpenAI, and Google. The researchers found that big labs were granted extensive private testing to cherry-pick winning variants and received higher battle sampling rates. LM Arena pushed back against the claims as inaccurate, but promised to update its sampling algorithm.
