Abstract

As the AI speaker business has risen significantly in recent years, the potential for numerous uses of AI speakers has gotten a lot of attention. Consumers have created an environment in which they can express and share their experiences with products through various channels, resulting in a large number of reviews that leave consumers with a variety of candid opinions about their experiences, which can be said to be very useful in analyzing consumers' thoughts. Using this review data, this study aimed to examine the factors driving the continued use of AI speakers. Above all, it was determined whether the seven characteristics associated with the intention to adopt AI identified in prior studies appear in consumer reviews. Based on customer review data on Amazon.com, text mining and social network analysis were utilized to examine Amazon eco-products. CONCOR analysis was used to classify words with similar connectivity locations, and Connection centrality analysis was used to classify the factors influencing the continuous use of AI speakers, focusing on the connectivity between words derived by classifying review data into positive and negative reviews. Consumers regarded personality and closeness as the most essential characteristics impacting the continued usage of AI speakers as a result of the favorable review survey. These two parameters had a strong correlation with other variables, and connectedness, in addition to the components established from prior studies, was a significant factor. Furthermore, additional negative review research revealed that recognition failures and compatibility are important problems that deter consumers from utilizing AI speakers. This study will give specific solutions for consumers to continue to utilize Amazon eco products based on the findings of the research.

최근 AI 스피커 시장의 규모가 급속도 커지면서 AI 스피커의 다양한 활용 가능성이 크게 주목받고 있다. 소비자들이 다양한 채널을 통해 제품을 사용한 경험을 표현하고 공유하는 환경을 만들어 졌고, 그로 인하여 소비자가 제품을 이용한 경험에 대한 다양하고 솔직한 생각을 남긴 리뷰들의 양이 방대해졌는데, 이러한 리뷰데이터는 소비자의 생각을 분석하는 데에 매우 유용하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이 리뷰데이터를 활용하여 AI 스피커 지속적인 사용에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대하여 분석하고자 하였다. 무엇보다 선행연구를 통하여 도출된 AI 사용의도에 영향을 미치는 7가지 요인들이 실제로 소비자들이 남기는 리뷰에서도 나타나는 요인인지를 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해, Amazon.com의 아마존 에코 제품에 대한 고객 리뷰데이터를 기반으로 하여 텍스트마이닝과 사회관계망 분석을 활용하여 분석하였다. 리뷰데이터를 긍정리뷰와 부정리뷰로 분류하고 전처리하여 도출된 단어들 간 연결성을 중심으로 AI 스피커의 지속적인 사용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분류하고자 연결 중심성 분석을 하였으며, 이를 통해 연결성의 위치가 비슷한 단어들 간 분류를 하기 위하여 CONCOR 분석을 하였다. 긍정 리뷰 연구 결과, 소비자들은 AI 스피커 지속적 사용에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 의인화와 친밀성을 가장 중요하게 보았다. 이 두 요인들은 다른 요인들과도 강한 연결 관계를 보여주었고, 선행연구에서 도출된 요인 외에 연결성도 중요한 요인임을 도출하였다. 또한 추가적으로 부정적인 리뷰 분석 결과, 인식오류와 호환성이 AI 스피커 사용에 있어서 소비자들에게 부정적인 영향을 주는 주요 요인들로 도출되었다. 이러한 연구 결과를 토대로 본 연구에서는 소비자들이 아마존 에코 제품을 지속적으로 사용하게 하는 구체적인 방법에 대하여 제시하고자 한다.
