LLMGreenRec: LLM-Based Multi-Agent Recommender System for Sustainable E-Commerce

Hao N. Nguyen, Hieu M. Nguyen, Son Van Nguyen, Nguyen Thi Hanh

TL;DR

LLMGreenRec is introduced, a novel multi-agent framework that leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to promote sustainable consumption through collaborative analysis of user interactions and iterative prompt refinement, which reduces unnecessary interactions and energy consumption.

Abstract

Rising environmental awareness in e-commerce necessitates recommender systems that not only guide users to sustainable products but also minimize their own digital carbon footprints. Traditional session-based systems, optimized for short-term conversions, often fail to capture nuanced user intents for eco-friendly choices, perpetuating a gap between green intentions and actions. To tackle this, we introduce LLMGreenRec, a novel multi-agent framework that leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to promote sustainable consumption. Through collaborative analysis of user interactions and iterative prompt refinement, LLMGreenRec's specialized agents deduce green-oriented user intents and prioritize eco-friendly product recommendations. Notably, this intent-driven approach also reduces unnecessary interactions and energy consumption. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets validate LLMGreenRec's effectiveness in recommending sustainable products, demonstrating a robust solution that fosters a responsible digital economy.
