Researchers have introduced a new framework called Think Thrice Before You Speak (TTBYS) to enhance the Theory of Mind (ToM) capabilities in large language models for persuasive dialogue. This framework addresses limitations in current models by explicitly modeling the sequential dependencies among mental states like beliefs and desires, using the Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) framework. To support this, they also created a large dataset, ToM-based Broad Persuasive Dialogues (ToM-BPD), and demonstrated that a Qwen3-8B model augmented with TTBYS outperformed GPT-5 on predicting mental states and persuasive strategies.
