@omarsar0: Great paper from DeepMind on effective model routing strategies.
Summary
Google DeepMind released a paper on effective model routing strategies, discussing how LLM routers are judged on accuracy and cost but can be meaningless if models respond identically.

LLM routers get judged on accuracy and cost.
Both can look great while the router is meaningless. If every model in your society responds the same way, routing is vacuous, you get the same answers no matter where
