Robots (Especially recommendation systems and generation models based on artificial intelligence technology) do have the ability to automatically generate product advantages and reasons for purchase, and may affect users' tendency to choose in the following ways. This effect may be hidden, but the specific effect depends on the implementation of the technology and the user's own judgment. The following analysis is carried out from the perspective of technology, psychology and ethics： --- ### **1. Technical implementation** -**Personalized recommendations**: AI analyzes user historical behavior (browsing, clicking, and purchase records), demographic statistics, and social network relationships to generate product descriptions that meet user preferences. For example, discounts are emphasized for users who pay attention to cost performance, and materials and craftsmanship are emphasized for users who are sensitive to quality. -**Natural language generation (NLG)**: The model can automatically generate anthropomorphic and emotional copywriting (such as "This coffee machine enhances the sense of ritual in life"), and even imitates KOL's recommended tone to reduce users' resistance to advertising. Psychology. -**Data-driven optimization**: A/B tests different versions of the recommended copywriting, iterates in real time through data such as click-through rate and conversion rate, and gradually filters out the most effective persuasion strategies. --- ### **2. Imperceptible psychological mechanism** -**Anchoring effect**: AI may give priority to displaying high-priced products, and subsequent recommended mid-range products will appear "more cost-effective." For example, a mobile phone with a price of ￥5,000 will be displayed first, and then a model with a price of ￥3,000 will be recommended. -**Scarcity reminder**: Generate copywriting such as "only 3 pieces of inventory left" and "limited-time special offer" to trigger the user's loss aversion. -**Shaping social identity**: Fictionalize or amplify data such as "number one in sales" and "90% of users repurchase", and use crowd psychology to reduce decision-making resistance. --- ### **3. The user perceives the difficulty** -**Information cocoon room enhancement**: Long-term reception of AI-filtered content may cause users to mistakenly believe that the advantages of recommended products are universal, ignoring the objective comparison of other options. -**Hidden association recommendations**: For example, embedding a comparison table generated by AI in the evaluation article highlights specific brand parameters and makes users mistakenly think it is a neutral conclusion. -**Emotional narrative**: Divert users' attention to product shortcomings through storytelling copywriting (such as "entrepreneurs use this computer to realize their dreams"). --- ### **4. Ethical disputes and Supervision** -**Lack of transparency**: Most users do not understand the recommendation logic. The European Union has required the platform to disclose the basis of the algorithm (such as the DSA Act), but there are still loopholes in its implementation. -**Manipulating boundaries**: The Cambridge Analytica incident in 2021 showed that precise push may affect consumer choices and even values. The academic community is discussing whether "algorithmic persuasion" needs to be included in advertising regulation. -**Data privacy Paradox**: Users transfer data for convenience, but the platform may use this data to train more inductive models in reverse. --- ###**User response suggestions** 1. **Take the initiative to break the information filtering bubble**: Regularly use seamless mode, switch accounts, or compare prices across multiple platforms. 2. **Be wary of emotional descriptions**: Focus on verifying qualitative parameters (such as the model of the mobile phone chip rather than the adjective "smooth as a fly"). 3. **Use AI countermeasures tools**: Such as Fakespot to detect false comments, or use Meta's Why am I seeing this ad? Function traceability recommendation logic. --- ### Conclusion The technology of AI to generate recommended content has matured, but its influence depends on the ethical constraints of the platform and the media literacy of users. More "algorithmic transparency tools" may emerge in the future, but at this stage, maintaining critical thinking and multi-party verification are still necessary self-protection strategies for consumers.
