Purpose Customer value co-creation in robots-mediated hospitality encounters involves active collaboration between customers and robots. In such encounters, robot capabilities, which are their functionalities or operational competences, personalities, interactive behaviors communication styles, play a key role enhancing customer co-creation. The purpose of this study is to draw on service dominant logic examine the capabilities personalities determining satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach authors adopted mixed-methods research approach. A netnographic analysis was conducted online reviews for robotic hotels restaurants identify that shaped experiences. Following this, quantitative (survey) investigate effects Findings From analysis, identified cognitive, technical, interactional, emotional, personalization autonomous as influencing findings follow-up empirical showed higher-order construct positively influences co-creation, which, turn, affects Furthermore, extroversion personality moderates relationship, robots with high levels result greater when possess compared introversion personalities. Practical implications This advances understanding robot-mediated by emphasizing crucial factors effective sector. it offers actionable insights providers selection satisfaction successful Originality/value While previous has predominantly focused acceptance interaction settings, present examined how facilitate customers. Specifically, explores shaping perceptions. few recent studies customer-robot interactions have considered specific capabilities. However, given services experiential nature involve various tasks, broad range should be comprehensive process. By addressing gap, novel into what (capabilities) (extraversion personality)

Abstract The expansion of brands adopting artificial intelligence services with human characteristics, such as chatbots, has revolutionized digital marketing strategies, transforming how companies reach and engage customers. This technological innovation is reshaping interactions between consumers, offering a more personalized efficient experience. study explores the influence chatbot anthropomorphism on customer engagement purchasing decision-making that use this service. Data from questionnaire 1319 participants was analyzed using partial least squares method. Chatbot positive when relationship mediated by engagement. In turn, involvement also decision-making. results emphasize for greater chatbot's decision-making, must first be engaged chatbot. research illuminates new path in domain AI-enabled brand interactions, showing distinct chatbots satisfaction, trust loyalty, thus revolutionizing traditional paradigms consumer-brand processes. By exploring intricate dynamics anthropomorphized decisions, breaks ground, unprecedented insight into transformative potential human-like shaping consumer behavior relationships.

ABSTRACT This study explores the positive and negative effects of perceived smartness humanness on consumer acceptance service robotic agents, particularly, regarding formation value creators such as trust attitude toward human–robot interactions (HRIs) well destructors stress emotion. Data were collected through a combination fieldwork experimental methods. The first study, approach, was conducted in library that deployed Temi robot. Findings from show significant robot trust. Moreover, partially mediated effect intention to use. second comprised an online scenario‐based experiment designed extend findings Study 1. validated creators. pinpoints distinctive factors impact robots, offering actionable insights for deploying agents frontline settings. By prioritizing design features optimize HRIs, this research bridges gap between theory practice, providing realistic view with robots.
