"In scenarios where you wish to score a model's output from 1-10 based on a criteria set and/or reference answer, the `Score` evaluator can be helpful. This is most useful for comparing the performance of different models on a given task.\n",
"The Scoring Evaluator instructs a language model to assess your model's predictions on a specified scale (default is 1-10) based on your custom criteria or rubric. This feature provides a nuanced evaluation instead of a simplistic binary score, aiding in evaluating models against tailored rubrics and comparing model performance on specific tasks.\n",

"Before we dive in, please note that any specific grade from an LLM should be taken with a grain of salt. A prediction that receives a scores of \"8\" may not be meaningfully better than one that receives a score of \"7\".\n",
