When Technology Fails: Rage Against the Machine Or Self-Control? Investigating Customer’S Negative Emotions and Coping Strategies in Ai-Service Failure Scenarios
We investigate the impact of service failures on customers’ anger, frustration and coping strategies when interacting with an artificial intelligence based chatbot compared to a human. Results show that in the same aversive situation, emotional responses differ when customers are aware of interacting with a chatbot rather than a human.
