The paper demonstrates the superiority of alignment methods over instruction fine-tuning alone in achieving better adherence to guardrails in conversational agents. The study compares traditional training approaches like instruction fine-tuning and direct alignment methods like Identity Preference Optimization (IPO) and Kahneman-Tversky Optimization (KTO). Results show that alignment techniques can optimize conversational bots, particularly in domains requiring strict rule adherence, such as customer care.

This paper shows how to make chatbots better at following rules. It compares two ways to train chatbots: one way is fine-tuning the instructions, and the other way is using a new method called alignment. The study finds that the alignment method does a better job of keeping the chatbot in line with what’s allowed. This matters because some chatbots need to follow strict rules, like customer service chatbots.
