Popis: This article introduces Alquist 5.0, our SocialBot that was designed for the Alexa Prize SocialBot Grand Challenge 5. Building upon previous iterations, we present the integration of our novel neural response generator (NRG) Barista within a hybrid architecture that combines traditional predefined dialogues with advanced neural response generation. We provide a comprehensive analysis of the current state-of-the-art NRGs and large language models (LLMs), leveraging these insights to enhance Barista’s capabilities. A key focus of our development was in ensuring the safety of our chatbot and implementing robust measures to prevent profanity and inappropriate content. Additionally, we incorporated a new search engine to improve information retrieval and response accuracy. Expanding the capabilities of our system, we designed Alquist 5.0 to accommodate multimodal devices, utilizing APL templates enriched with custom features to deliver an outstanding conversational experience complemented by an excellent user interface. This paper offers detailed insights into the development of Alquist 5.0, which effectively addresses evolving user demands while preserving its empathetic and knowledgeable conversational prowess across a wide range of topics.
