Building a Personalized Dialogue System with Prompt-Tuning

Abstract: Dialogue systems without consistent responses are not fascinating. In this study, we build a dialogue system that can respond based on a given character setting (persona) to bring consistency. Considering the trend of the rapidly increasing scale of LLMs, we propose an approach that uses prompt-tuning, which has low learning costs, on pre-trained large-scale LLMs. The results of automatic and manual evaluations in English and Japanese show that it is possible to build a dialogue system with more natural and personalized responses using less computational resources than fine-tuning.
