arXiv:2610.15685v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Conventional distillation transfers capability through teacher-generated demonstrations. LLM-as-a-Judge knowledge distillation offers a distinct and increasingly practical alternative. In the label-only variant studied here, the student generates every response and improves from scalar scores alone. Prior work shows that this non-demonstrative feedback can improve student capability, but it creates a fundamentally different provenance problem. No teacher-generated answer enters the student's training set, so any evaluator-specific trace must pass
