Cultural Palette: Pluralising Culture Alignment via Multi-agent Palette
Jiahao Yuan, Zixiang Di, Shangzixin Zhao, Usman Naseem
Large language models (LLMs) face challenges in aligning with diverse cultural values despite their remarkable performance in generation, which stems from inherent monocultural biases and difficulties in capturing nuanced cultural semantics. Existing methods lack adaptability to unkown culture after finetuning. Inspired by cultural geography across five continents, we propose Cultural Palette, a multi-agent framework for cultural alignment. We first introduce the Pentachromatic Cultural Palette Dataset synthesized using LLMs to capture diverse cultural values from social dialogues across five continents. Building on this, Cultural Palette integrates five continent-level alignment agents with a meta-agent using our superior Cultural MoErges alignment technique by dynamically activating relevant cultural expertise based on user prompts to adapting new culture, which outperforms other joint and merging alignment strategies in overall cultural value alignment. Each continent agent generates a cultural draft, which is then refined and self-regulated by the meta-agent to produce the final culturally aligned response. Experiments across various countries demonstrate that Cultural Palette surpasses existing baselines in cultural alignment.
