Researchers have developed a new method for personalizing large language models (LLMs) called "steerable chatbots." Instead of relying solely on user prompts, this approach uses a linear scalar to directly control the expression of user preferences within the LLM's output. Prototypes of this system were tested in a user study, showing potential for better alignment with user preferences compared to traditional prompting, while also highlighting user preferences for control, persistence, and transparency in personalization.
