Instead of just generating the next response, it simulates entire conversation trees to find paths that achieve long-term goals.

How it works:

Generates multiple response candidates at each conversation state
Simulates how conversations might unfold down each branch (using the LLM to predict user responses)
Scores each trajectory on metrics like empathy, goal achievement, coherence
Uses MCTS with UCB1 to efficiently explore the most promising paths
Selects the response that leads to the best expected outcome

Limitations:

Scoring is done by the same LLM that generates responses
Branch pruning is naive - just threshold-based instead of something smarter like progressive widening
Memory usage grows with tree size, there currently no node recycling

overthinking how someone might react to what it could say in multiple branches with growing resource usage

This is it, if they can get it to reliably decide to just not say anything at all in the end then I have been fully replaced madeline-sadeline

Lol same, what I was thinking while reading the features was "wow, they found a way to simulate masking!"
