Patronus AI Unveils Industry’s First Multimodal Large Language Model-as-a-Judge

Patronus AI has officially launched what it describes as the industry’s very first multimodal large language model-as-a-judge (MLLM-as-a-Judge). This innovative tool is designed to evaluate AI systems that interpret images and generate text.

The primary goal of this new evaluation technology is to assist developers in identifying and addressing issues related to hallucinations and reliability in multimodal AI applications. Online marketplace giant Etsy has already adopted this technology to verify the accuracy of captions for product images on their platform, which features handmade and vintage goods from around the world.

Anand Kannappan, cofounder of Patronus AI, expressed his excitement about Etsy being one of their initial customers. In an exclusive interview with VentureBeat, he highlighted the importance of ensuring that the captions generated by AI systems are correct, especially as Etsy continues to expand its global user base.

Choosing Google’s Gemini Model Over OpenAI for the AI Judge

Patronus opted to build its first MLLM-as-a-Judge, named Judge-Image, on Google’s Gemini model after conducting thorough research and comparing it to alternatives like OpenAI’s GPT-4V. According to Kannappan, Gemini demonstrated a more equitable approach and less bias compared to other models, making it the ideal choice for their AI judge.

The company’s research also revealed an interesting insight about multimodal evaluation. While multi-step reasoning often enhances performance in text-only evaluations, Kannappan noted that it does not necessarily improve MLLM judge performance in image-based assessments.

Judge-Image offers preconfigured evaluators that assess image captions based on various criteria, including hallucination detection, object recognition, object location accuracy, and text analysis.

Expanding Beyond Retail: Diverse Applications of AI Image Evaluation

While Etsy serves as a prominent example in the e-commerce sector, Patronus believes that the applications of their technology extend far beyond retail. Marketing teams working on design descriptions and captions, as well as enterprises dealing with document processing, can benefit from AI image evaluation.

Kannappan highlighted the relevance of Patronus’s technology for marketing teams creating descriptions for new design blocks and products, as well as for enterprises extracting information from PDFs and summarizing large documents.

The Strategic Value of Outsourcing AI Evaluation

As AI continues to play a crucial role in business operations, many companies face the dilemma of whether to build or buy evaluation tools. Kannappan emphasized the strategic and economic benefits of outsourcing AI evaluation, especially for complex multimodal systems where failures can occur at various stages.

Patronus offers multiple pricing tiers, including a free option for experimentation within volume limits. Customers can then pay for evaluator usage based on their needs or explore enterprise arrangements with customized features and pricing.

A Complementary Approach to Foundation Models

Despite using Google’s Gemini model as the foundation for their technology, Patronus positions itself as complementary rather than competitive with foundational model providers like Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic. Kannappan emphasized that their solutions are designed to enhance LLM systems, rather than replace them.

Next Steps: Audio Evaluation and Scalable Oversight

Looking ahead, Patronus plans to expand their evaluation capabilities beyond images into audio assessment. This aligns with their vision of scalable oversight, with a focus on developing evaluation mechanisms that can keep pace with increasingly sophisticated AI systems.

As businesses continue to deploy AI systems for image interpretation, text extraction, and visual content generation, the need for specialized tools like Patronus’s AI judge becomes increasingly crucial. In the rapidly evolving landscape of commercial AI deployment, impartial digital judges may prove to be indispensable in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of complex multimodal AI systems.
