To remedy this, we propose the notion of Pragmatically Appropriate Diversity, defined as the extent to which a conversation creates and constrains the creation of multiple diverse responses.

Second, we demonstrate how to iteratively improve the semantic diversity of a sampled set of responses via a new generation procedure called Diversity Threshold Generation, which results in an average 137% increase in NLI Diversity compared to standard generation procedures.
