Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this paper, we discuss the results of a study of an utterance generation model based on TV programs and specifiedinterest words, with the aim of implementing it in a companion robot that watches TV with humans. In order to automaticallygenerate the robot’s utterances while watching TV, we created a TV program-related utterance dataset by adding about 12,000robot utterances to the program’s captions. Using this dataset, we built an utterance generation model by fine-tuning a large-scalegeneral-purpose language model for chat dialog. Our model can generate utterances with the given specified interest wordas the topic, taking into account the context of the TV program using its captions and the interest word. As a result of evaluationof the sentences generated by our model, we confirmed that about 88% of the sentences are natural Japanese sentences, andabout 75% of the sentences are natural sentences in the context of the program. In addition, about 83% of the utterancesreflected the specified interest words. It was found that our model can generate utterances that are natural in the context of theprogram’s captions and that suggest interest in the specified interest words.
