They should define this, but after having read the entire article I think it’s clear they mean “frameworks for evaluating the output of an agent” rather than what first might come to mind as “LLM evals”.
Their thesis is that even when the eval is useless for correctness of a single agentic action in production, it allows you to choose between two agents by cross-comparing in a large aggregated collection of tasks. Effectively: you can tune your agentic parameters.
Nothing new to the idea that taking many samples and averaging can work when a single datapoint doesn’t. Presumably this is part of a conversation in which we’re lacking context.
What is an LLM evaluator?

Are “frameworks for evaluating the output of an agent” and "LLM evals" different? :) If yes, how?
