A company wants to select a new FM for its AI assistant.

Option B is correct because it uses the managed evaluation capability in Amazon Bedrock that is intended specifically for comparing foundation models using a consistent prompt set and producing structured results with minimal custom tooling. In a Bedrock evaluation workflow, you provide an input dataset of prompts, typically in JSON Lines format so each line represents one evaluation record. Storing the JSONL file in Amazon S3 allows Bedrock to read the dataset at scale and write standardized evaluation outputs back to S3 for downstream analysis, sharing, and retention.

The key requirement is to assess both quality and safety across multiple models. A Bedrock evaluation job can use a judge model to score the generated outputs against defined criteria. This approach supports repeatable, apples-to-apples comparisons because the same judge model and scoring rubric can be applied to every candidate foundation model. The candidate models are configured as generators, meaning each evaluation job run uses one selected FM to produce answers for the same prompt set, and the judge model evaluates those answers. That matches the requirement to generate evaluation reports that help a data scientist select the best FM.

Option A does not use Bedrock evaluation jobs, and a knowledge base plus RetrieveAndGenerate is a RAG pattern, not an evaluation framework. It would produce responses but not standardized scoring and reporting suitable for model selection. Option C is incorrect because Bedrock evaluation outputs are delivered to S3, not directly to a BI destination, and selecting the candidate FM as the evaluator conflicts with the intended pattern of using a stable judge model. Option D misuses knowledge bases and retrieval evaluation types when the requirement is prompt-based model assessment rather than evaluating retrieval quality.
