The e-commerce clothing industry is transforming by integrating artificial intelligence (AI) in visual content creation. This paper aims to evaluate the impact of AI-generated images on consumer perception and sales performance, positing that AI imaging offers a cost-effective and efficient alternative to traditional photoshoots. The study addresses the problem of high costs and logistical challenges associated with conventional photoshoots by exploring AI's potential to enhance customer trust and satisfaction, thereby driving higher sales conversion rates. In a controlled study, 106 participants were exposed to both AI-generated and traditional photoshoot images, which they rated based on authenticity, appeal, and quality. Their shopping behavior were observed in a simulated e-commerce environment. Results indicated that AI-generated images received higher ratings across all criteria, with statistical analyses confirming the significance of these differences. Additionally, AI-generated photos were found to significantly predict higher sales conversion rates. These findings suggest that AI-generated images can improve consumer trust and satisfaction, making high-quality visual content more accessible and scalable for e-commerce businesses. In conclusion, this research underscores the transformative potential of AI in the e-commerce clothing industry by offering a cost-effective and scalable solution for creating high-quality images.
