Traditional vs. AI-generated brand personalities: Impact on brand preference and purchase intention

초록

This study evaluates how generative AI images align with consumer perceptions and impact consumer-brand relationships and purchase behavior. Using generative AI (ChatGPT 4 and DALL-E 3), images of luxury fashion brands were generated and assessed against established brand personalities. Findings show that AI-generated images effectively reflect brand personalities, significantly influencing consumer preferences and purchase intentions through self-brand connections. While traditional models have higher explanatory power, this research highlights the vital role of generative AI in marketing. The insights underscore AI's potential to shape consumer-brand dynamics, particularly among younger generations in the luxury market.
