Abstract

This research explores how advertising content created with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) is perceived. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines the extraction and analysis of secondary data (publications from the #StarterpackNoAI movement on LinkedIn) with two focus groups conducted with consumers, the study highlights a nuanced perception of AI use in visual content creation. The results show that consumers tend to associate AI with content that is perceived as too perfect, emotionally neutral, repetitive, or artificial. Conversely, content attributed to human creators is recognized for its imperfection, originality, and personality. However, these effects vary depending on the type of product: items featuring human representation (e.g., clothing worn by a model) are judged more negatively than products without direct embodiment (e.g., beverages). Finally, the use of AI raises ethical and transparency concerns, particularly when its involvement is not disclosed — a lack of clarity that often triggers distrust and rejection.
