Abstract

With the development of artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, virtual adviser provides users with a new way to seek help and decision support. This technology has great advantages in efficiency and decision accuracy, but its application is also facing challenges - the customer pushback caused by machine identity disclosure. Based on Task-Technology Fit Theory, this study proposes a research model to test the impact of the matching between identity disclosure and task types on user trust and adoption intention. We propose a 2 (virtual adviser identity disclosure: disclosure vs. non-disclosure) × 2 (task type: objective task vs. subjective task) experiment. This study uses SPSS25.0 analysis software to find that identity disclosure will have a significant impact on users’ adoption intention, trust plays a mediation role, and produces differentiated results in different task types. The experimental results of this study will provide theoretical and practical guidance for service providers to understand user psychology and deploy virtual services.
