Scaling Reliable Text Summarization with LLM Jury Systems on Amazon Bedrock

Introduction

It is the responsibility of today’s organizations to extract reliable conclusions from heaps of unorganized text, such as questionnaires, customer feedback, and product reviews. Hand verification is impossible; checking even a few thousand records may consume weeks of work. With the advent of large language models (LLMs), summarization became easier, but ensuring that the summaries are of good quality and reliable is a concern.

This is where LLM reviewing LLM, or LLM jury systems, fit in. By having multiple LLMs review the work of another model, companies can construct scalable pipelines that approximate human-level review without compromising speed and efficiency. Amazon Bedrock and the Amazon Nova family of models provide the foundation to construct such systems with minimal custom code.

Learning about LLM Jury Systems

An LLM jury process works in a three-step process:

• Summarization – A single-pass LLM is applied to raw input text (for example, thousands of questionnaire answers) and generates thematic summaries.
• Evaluation – A jury of different LLMs individually grades the match of the summary with the data.
• Aggregation – Marks are aggregated to generate a consensus, reducing the impact of any single model’s bias.

This approach lowers hallucinations and confirmation bias to generate firmer results than an individual-model pipeline. Unlike other keyword assessments, jury systems introduce contextual meaning, which is well suited to subtle text such as sentiment-laden comments or open-ended survey responses.

Why AI Must Judge AI?

• Scalability: Thousands of text records are processed within minutes and not weeks.
• Objectivity: Multiple assessors reduce individual model biases.
• Low-Code Deployment: Amazon Bedrock separates infrastructure and enables orchestration with low engineering effort.
• Reliability: the Human and LLM jury agreement rates generally converge, utilizing metrics such as Cohen’s kappa to quantify concurrence.
• Adaptability: Jury platforms can be readily calibrated for different industries (retail, health, finance) by adjusting test prompts, and thus are extremely flexible between industries.

Amazon Nova and Amazon Bedrock Integration

The Amazon Nova model family is best equipped to handle jury-based workflows:

• Amazon Nova Micro: Economically priced, high-speed text analysis.
• Amazon Nova Lite: Economically priced, balanced multimodal support.
• Amazon Nova Pro: High-accuracy model for advanced evaluation.

Through Amazon Bedrock, they can orchestrate the models into jury pipelines without dealing with infrastructure. Amazon Bedrock’s built-in AWS service integration for AWS Lambda, AWS Step Functions, and Amazon DynamoDB enables organizations to automate evaluation workflows, store results, and drive insights into dashboards or report applications. This delivers an end-to-end pipeline from ingestion to decision-making.

This demonstrates:

• Summarization by a higher-capacity model (Amazon Nova Pro).
• Assessment by multiple lighter models.
• Consensus conclusion through aggregation of all ratings.

This is possible for thousands of records at production volume using AWS Lambda for parallel execution or Step Functions for orchestration. Assessments and scores can be stored in DynamoDB for audit and future comparison.

Conclusion

Judging AI using AI is not an idea confined to research, it’s a lucrative business strategy for organizations that require high-scale qualitative text assessment at the expense of truthfulness.

The greater the volume of unstructured text data that is reaped, the more these systems will be the medium of translating noise into actionable insight to empower businesses to respond more quickly, make better decisions, and continue to benefit from customers’ trust.
