Don't Start Over: A Cost-Effective Framework for Migrating Personalized Prompts Between LLMs

Personalization in Large Language Models (LLMs) often relies on user-specific soft prompts. However, these prompts become obsolete when the foundation model is upgraded, necessitating costly, full-scale retraining. To overcome this limitation, we propose the Prompt-level User Migration Adapter (PUMA), a lightweight framework to efficiently migrate personalized prompts across incompatible models. PUMA utilizes a parameter-efficient adapter to bridge the semantic gap, combined with a group-based user selection strategy to significantly reduce training costs. Experiments on three large-scale datasets show our method matches or even surpasses the performance of retraining from scratch, reducing computational cost by up to 98%. The framework demonstrates strong generalization across diverse model architectures and robustness in advanced scenarios like chained and aggregated migrations, offering a practical path for the sustainable evolution of personalized AI by decoupling user assets from the underlying models.

Position-Aware Drafting for Inference Acceleration in LLM-Based Generative List-Wise Recommendation

Large language model (LLM)-based generative list-wise recommendation has advanced rapidly, but decoding remains sequential and thus latency-prone. To accelerate inference without changing the target distribution, speculative decoding (SD) uses a small draft model to propose several next tokens at once and a target LLM to verify and accept the longest prefix, skipping multiple steps per round. In generative recommendation, however, each item is represented by multiple semantic-ID tokens, often with separators, and current drafts typically treat these tokens uniformly. This overlooks two practical facts: (i) a token's semantics depend on its within-item slot, and (ii) uncertainty tends to increase with speculation depth. Without modeling these effects, SD's speedups can be limited. We introduce PAD-Rec, Position-Aware Drafting for generative Recommendation, a lightweight module that augments the draft model with two complementary signals. Item position embeddings explicitly encode the within-item slot of each token, strengthening structural awareness. Step position embeddings encode the draft step, allowing the model to adapt to depth-dependent uncertainty and improve proposal quality. To harmonize these signals with base features, we add simple gates: a learnable coefficient for item slots and a context-driven gate for draft steps. The module is trainable, easy to integrate with standard draft models, and adds negligible inference overhead. Extensive experiments on four real-world datasets show up to 3.1x wall-clock speedup and about 5% average wall-clock speedup gain over strong SD baselines, while largely preserving recommendation quality.
