Expert Personas Improve LLM Alignment but Damage Accuracy: Bootstrapping Intent-Based Persona Routing with PRISM
Persona prompting can steer LLM generation towards a domain-specific tone and pattern. This behavior enables use cases in multi-agent systems where diverse interactions are crucial and human-centered tasks require high-level human alignment. Prior works provide mixed opinions on their utility: some report performance gains when using expert personas for certain domains and their contribution to data diversity in synthetic data creation, while others find near-zero or negative impact on general utility. To fully leverage the benefits of the LLM persona and avoid its harmfulness, a more comprehensive investigation of the mechanism is crucial. In this work, we study how model optimization, t...
