However, how these technologies are perceived by consumers of banking services remains underexplored, especially in emerging markets. This study aims at addressing this issue by investigating consumer acceptability of AIoT-enabled personalized banking (AIoT-PB) in the context of India.

A quantitative survey was used to gather data, which were then analyzed using PLS-SEM path model. The findings indicate that there are complex relationships between perceived ease of use (PEOU), perceived usefulness (PUS) and bank reputation (RB) in predicting consumer attitudes (ATT) and behavioral intentions (BHE) toward AIoT-PB. The results show that banks should prioritize basic AIoT ...
