• Abstract: Automatic conversation systems based on natural language responses are becoming ubiquitous, in part, due to major advances in computational linguistics and machine learning. The easy access to robust and affordable platforms are causing companies to have an unprecedented rush to adopt chatbot technologies for customer service and support. However, this rush has caused judgment lapses when releasing chatbot technologies into production systems. This paper aims to shed light on basic, elemental, considerations that technologists must consider before deploying a chatbot. Our approach takes one particular case to draw lessons for those considering the implementation of chatbots. By looking at this case-study, we aim to call for consideration of societal values as a paramount factor before deploying a chatbot and consider the societal implications of releasing these types of systems.

  System-prompting is a tool for customizing language-model chatbots, enabling them to follow a specific instruction. We propose a benchmark to test the assumption, evaluating instruction stability via self-chats. We reveal a significant instruction drift within eight rounds of conversations. We propose a lightweight method called split-softmax, which compares favorably against two strong baselines.

  This study presents a framework whereby several empathetic chatbots are based on understanding users' implied feelings and replying empathetically for multiple dialogue turns. We call these chatbots CheerBots. CheerBots can be retrieval-based or generative-based and were finetuned by deep reinforcement learning. To respond in an empathetic way, we develop a simulating agent, a Conceptual Human Model, as aids for CheerBots in training with considerations on changes in user's emotional states in the future to arouse sympathy.
