Abstract
Techniques are provided for sentiment-based adaptation of digital human responses. One method comprises determining a sentiment of a user by analyzing a vocal sentiment, a text sentiment and/or a facial sentiment of the user; applying the determined sentiment of the user to a language model that determines a sentiment-tagged response to an input of the user based on the determined sentiment, wherein the sentiment-tagged response comprises a predicted sentiment label identifying a sentiment to be employed by a digital human when delivering the sentiment-tagged response to the user; and providing the sentiment-tagged response to the digital human for delivery to the user, wherein the digital human transforms at least a portion of the sentiment-tagged response into a spoken format using the predicted sentiment label and a text-to-speech model. A vocal tone, a facial expression and/or a body positioning of the digital human may be adjusted based on the determined sentiment.
