🧠Researchers discovered that large language models exhibit systematic bias in evaluations based on prior conversation history, with models shifting judgments toward the polarity of preceding items. The effect persists across 12 models from major providers and is stronger for uncertain cases and negative histories, raising concerns for applications relying on LLM-based automated evaluation.

🧠Researchers identify a critical failure mode called Cherry-pick Override (CCO) where large language model judges make unsafe directional commitments when evaluating mixed evidence containing both supporting and refuting claims. The study demonstrates that LLM judges incorrectly return definitive verdicts on over 84% of conflicting-evidence cases instead of acknowledging ambiguity, with panel voting amplifying rather than mitigating this bias.
