MADS: Multi-Agent Dialogue Simulation for Diverse Persuasion Data Generation (2025.emnlp-industry)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies show that LLM-based agents exhibit superior moral and emotional language performance compared to humans, raising expectations for their deployment in persuasive tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for generating persuasive multi-turn dialogues via agent self-play using user agents designed to simulate diverse persona-driven behaviors, a Dialog Agent executing task-oriented persuasion strategies and an Optimization Agent evaluating and refining dialogue outcomes. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework significantly improved the persuasion capacity of small LLMs, increasing the organic traffic conversion rate by 22.4% (from 1.83% to 2.24%) . |
