• Abstract summary: Large Language Models (LLM) achieve state-of-the-art performance on many NLP tasks. We study whether LLMs can be used as substitutes for human annotators. We find that LLMs outperform current automatic measures for system-level evaluation but still struggle to provide satisfactory explanations.

• Abstract: Storytelling is an integral part of human experience and plays a crucial role in social interactions. Thus, Automatic Story Evaluation (ASE) and Generation (ASG) could benefit society in multiple ways, but they are challenging tasks which require high-level human abilities such as creativity, reasoning and deep understanding. Meanwhile, Large Language Models (LLM) now achieve state-of-the-art performance on many NLP tasks. In this paper, we study whether LLMs can be used as substitutes for human annotators for ASE. We perform an extensive analysis of the correlations between LLM ratings, other automatic measures, and human annotations, and we explore the influence of prompting on the results and the explainability of LLM behaviour. Most notably, we find that LLMs outperform current automatic measures for system-level evaluation but still struggle at providing satisfactory explanations for their answers.

  Conversational question-answering systems aim to create interactive search systems that retrieve information by interacting with users. Existing work uses human annotators to play the roles of the questioner (student) and the answerer (teacher) We propose a simulation framework that employs zero-shot learner LLMs for simulating teacher-student interactions.

  We introduce a novel task, Counterfactual Logical Modification (CLOMO), and a high-quality human-annotated benchmark. In this task, LLMs must adeptly alter a given argumentative text to uphold a predetermined logical relationship. We propose an innovative evaluation metric, the Self-Evaluation Score (SES), to directly evaluate the natural language output of LLMs.
