The paper introduces SARA, an industrial framework that scales articulated user rationales (AURs) for recommendation systems. It curates a high‑quality AUR dataset from 240 M users, trains a 7B‑parameter MLLM (SARA‑7B) to generate rationales for millions of authors, and integrates these generated rationales into a production ranking model (SARA‑Ranker). Offline and online experiments demonstrate that the system produces more specific, polarity‑consistent rationales and improves user engagement while reducing negative feedback.

Re2A is a new framework for situated conversational recommendation that models user interactions within shared physical environments. It introduces rubric-based preference reasoning to explicitly capture user preferences from dialogue history and scene context, and a preference-conditioned optimization to align generated responses with both user satisfaction and situational consistency. Experiments on two SCR datasets show that Re2A outperforms existing methods, providing more precise and context-aware recommendations.
