The paper introduces the concept of adaptive personalization under preference epistemic uncertainty, arguing that conversational AI must adjust its response strategy as human preferences evolve. A study shows people prefer state‑contingent strategies when uncertainty changes, and the authors build a multilingual benchmark to test language models on this task. Results reveal a recognition‑generation gap: models can choose the right strategy from options but fail to generate it correctly, defaulting to exploit‑first behavior; targeted training on internal strategy representations improves performance on out‑of‑distribution personas.

arXiv:2607. 14240v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current alignment approaches typically focus on emulating human behavior using static representations of human preferences, failing to capture the dynamic, context-dependent nature of real-world human-AI interactions.
Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have empowered home assistants with natural language interaction capabilities. However, current assistants overlook the progressive omission that occurs in human dialogue as shared context accumulates, leading to more elliptical expressions for efficient communication.
