Abstract

This study aims to empirically analyze the relationship between the motivational factors of generative AI users and the intention to continue using the service. Accordingly, the motives of users who use generative AI services are defined as individual, social, and technical motivation factors. This research verified the effect of these factors on intention to continue using the services and tested the meditating effect of trust and acceptance attitude. We tested this through verifying trust and acceptance attitudes. An online survey was conducted on language-based generative AI service users such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google Bard, Microsoft Bing, and Meta-Lama, and a structural equation analysis was conducted through a total of 356 surveys. As a result of the analysis, individual, social, and technical motivational factors all had a positive (+) effect on trust and acceptance attitude on the attitude toward accepting generative AI services. Among them, individual motivation such as self-efficacy, innovation orientation, and playful desire were found to have the greatest influence on the formation of the acceptance attitude. In addition, social factors were identified as the factors that have the greatest influence on trust in the use of generative AI services. When it comes to using generative AI, it was confirmed that social reputation or awareness directly affects the trust in usability.
