ConSiDERS-The-Human Evaluation Framework: Rethinking Human Evaluation for Generative Large Language Models
In this position paper, we argue that human evaluation of generative large language models (LLMs) should be a multidisciplinary undertaking that draws upon insights from disciplines such as user experience research and human behavioral psychology to ensure that the experimental design and results are reliable.
