Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tools such as recommendation engines are widely used in online marketing and e-commerce; however, online retailers often deploy these tools without understanding which human factors play a role in which products and at which stage of the customer journey. Understanding the interaction between AI-powered tools and humans can help practitioners create more effective online marketing platforms and improve human interaction with e-commerce tools. This paper examines customers' reliance on recommendation engines when purchasing fashion goods, electronics, and media content such as video and music. This paper also discusses the potential for improvement in recommendation engines in online marketing and e-commerce.
