Abstract The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology and its applications has drastically transformed consumer behavior (CB). As consumers interact with these on multiple platforms touchpoints, it becomes crucial to understand how interactions affect components, including personality, attitude, engagement, decision‐making, trust. research the relationship between (hereafter referred as AI CB) revolves around topics grown exponentially in recent years. A rigorous review is required provide directions for future studies by comprehending extensive literature, understanding gaps, identifying scholarly work. This article aims address this gap analyzing 107 CB articles using bibliometric framework‐based methodology insights into publication trends, dominant theories, methods, antecedents, decisions, outcomes literature. Most importantly, identifies clusters fronts provides a thematic framework current research. These or themes relate interaction dimensions, acceptance trust, attitude adoption.

Uncomfortable service interactions are ubiquitous in tourism and hospitality settings (e.g., returning a dish restaurant, ordering room late at night, complaining about noisy others hotel). Across five experimental studies, we show that robots reduce consumers' metaperception processing as consequence can mitigate customer discomfort. Specifically, demonstrate robots' perceived low level of mind leads to reduced or even eliminated (i.e., customers do not think the perceptions may have them). Consumer outcomes include more favorable attitudinal behavioral responses satisfaction, engagement, revisit intentions). Moreover, find degree anthropomorphic robot appearance does affect metaperception. Taken together, these findings provide theoretical practical insights for successful deployment into otherwise potentially uncomfortable encounters.

AI in service can be for routine mechanical tasks, analytical thinking or empathetic feeling tasks. We provide a conceptual framework the customer, firm, and interactional use of tasks at micro-, meso-, macro-levels. Emotions resulting from interactions include basic emotions (e.g., joy, sadness, fear), self-conscious pride, guilt, embarrassment), moral contempt, righteous anger, social disgust). These are mostly likely to occur during frontline which both firms customers AI, phenomenon called “AI as customer.” The analysis level emotion macro-level is transforming economy into economy, meso-level “thoughtful AI” make employees’ customers’ lives little bit better by brightening their days, micro-level experience basic, self-conscious, with AI.

Recent research has shown that the trade-off between customer satisfaction and productivity can be mitigated through three strategic pathways: (1) operations management (OM) approach, (2) focused service factory, (3) dual culture strategy, which allow firms to achieve cost-effective excellence (CESE). We advance these strategies are also excellent enablers for development, implementation, use of digital technologies, robots, artificial intelligence (AI). First, OM approach reduces process variations in delivery, creating opportunities leveraging technology automate processes. Second, factory strategy enables high volumes largely identical transactions with minimized customer-induced variability, easing automation. Third, ensures automation is firmly customer-centric achieves excellence. a set propositions questions aimed at stimulating intersection two streams literature on technologies CESE.
