Understanding Users' Switching Intention to AI-Powered Healthcare Chatbots.
ECIS(2021)
Abstract
Chatbots are promising artificial intelligence applications with the potential to transform the healthcare industry. Research has gradually explored how users perceive the proposition of healthcare chatbots as an alternative route to medical advice. The paper presents a model of users’ switching intentions to healthcare chatbots by integrating the Push-Pull-Mooring (PPM) framework with the status quo bias theory. The model was validated empirically with 345 Chinese users who had previous experience with online healthcare services. Findings reveal that the perceived responsiveness of chatbots has a positive effect on switching intentions while AI resistance bias has a negative effect. In turn, AI resistance bias can be explained by expectations of chatbot performance, relationship with doctors, and can be mitigated by favorable chatbot use experience in other contexts. The study contributes to our knowledge of the emerging impacts of AI technologies in healthcare and extends previous IS research drawing on status quo bias theory and the PPM framework. The study can further assist developers of healthcare chatbots to understand users’ concerns and switching barriers.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
