Which control checks whether an answer is supported by source material?
Why C is the answer
Groundedness detection
Azure AI Content Safety offers groundedness detection, and evaluators measure it too.
In detail
- Groundedness detection checks an answer against source material.
- Decide what to show when a check fails.
Use case
An illustrative scenario, not a real incident.
An app shows an answer only if it is supported by source text. Groundedness detection checks this at run time.
