How good is ChatGPT for evaluating automatic summarization, story generation, and data-to-text generation?
ChatGPT has an impressive ability to perform natural language processing tasks (NLP) with simple instructions.

In this article, I review the work by Wang et al. (2023), who studied the ability of ChatGPT at evaluating natural language generation (NLG):
Is ChatGPT a Good NLG Evaluator? A Preliminary Study
The main objective is to find whether a system like ChatGPT can be used to judge the quality of text generated by NLG…
