  Reposition the README's opening to clarify its role as a benchmark

  Why:

  CURRENT

  Public LLM leaderboard computed using Vectara's Hallucination Evaluation Model, also known as HHEM. This evaluates how often an LLM introduces hallucinations when summarizing a document. We plan to update this regularly as our model and the LLMs get updated over time.

  This repository hosts the **Vectara Hallucination Leaderboard**, a public benchmark for rigorously evaluating and comparing Large Language Models (LLMs) on their factual consistency and propensity to hallucinate when summarizing short documents. It serves as a critical resource for researchers and developers seeking to understand and improve LLM reliability.

  ## Why use the Vectara Hallucination Leaderboard?
  While tools like Ragas or TruLens provide frameworks for building your own LLM evaluation pipelines, the Vectara Hallucination Leaderboard offers a pre-computed, regularly updated, and standardized benchmark for comparing leading LLMs directly on their hallucination rates in summarization tasks. It provides an objective, third-party assessment using Vectara's HHEM model, saving you the effort of setting up and running extensive evaluations yourself.
