A research team is training a model to score the quality of AI-generated text. They are considering two approaches for collecting human feedback to train this scoring model:
- Approach A: Show a human evaluator two different text outputs for the same prompt and ask them to choose which one is better. The scoring model is then trained to predict this preference.
- Approach B: Show a human evaluator a single text output and ask them to rate its quality on a scale of 1 to 10. The scoring model is then trained to predict this specific rating.
What is the primary conceptual advantage of Approach B's framing of the learning task?
