Abstract

As artificial intelligence increasingly assumes creative roles in product design, consumers respond not only to its technological performance but also to the social qualities embodied by AI agents. Drawing on the UTAUT and SCM frameworks, this study examines consumers’ purchase intentions toward AI-designed fashion products through two pathways: an expectation-oriented path (performance expectancy, effort expectancy) and an environmental support path (social influence, facilitating conditions). Results show that both pathways positively influence purchase intention and shape perceptions of AI designers’ ability and warmth, which further enhance purchase intention—especially perceived warmth—indicating that acceptance of AI-designed products depends not only on functional evaluation but also on social perceptions of AI as a design agent.
