## Summary

Pairwise evaluation is an effective way to teach LLMs human preference in LLM app development. LangSmith offers pairwise evaluators that allow users to define custom pairwise LLM-as-judge evaluators and compare LLM generations. It can be used to evaluate content generation and address challenges in differentiating between LLMs. For more information, check out the video and documentation on pairwise evaluation.
