Human anchors build trust through a broadly effective relational pathway (perceived intimacy), while AI anchors' functional advantage converts into trust only under specific motivational conditions (high utilitarian motivation).
Interpretation of moderated mediation results from randomized experiment (N = 439) showing intimacy-mediated trust for human anchors and responsiveness-mediated trust for AI anchors only under high utilitarian motivation.
Consumer trust in live-streaming commerce is a conditional, motivation-dependent process rather than a uniform preference for either anchor type.
Synthesis of experimental results showing differential mediation/moderation patterns by hedonic and utilitarian motivation in sample N = 439 (moderated mediation analyses).
Perceived responsiveness became a significant pathway favoring AI anchors only when utilitarian motivation was high; at low utilitarian motivation, this pathway reversed direction.

The evolution of the AI computing power innovation ecosystem manifests distinct stage-based progressions and threshold-driven bifurcation characteristics, potentially transitioning from an initial 'natural monopoly and passive dependence' state through intermediary states (e.g., 'comfort zone trap' or 'regulatory stalemate') toward a mature configuration of 'co-opetition and endogenous growth.'
Derived from the paper's tripartite evolutionary game model and analytical derivation of evolutionarily stable strategies, with supporting numerical simulations exploring parametric sensitivities (method: theoretical evolutionary game + numerical simulation).
The computing power industry is undergoing a paradigm shift from traditional linear supply chains toward complex, interdependent innovation ecosystems driven by the rapid proliferation of generative artificial intelligence.
Conceptual claim presented in the paper's introduction/motivation; supported by the paper's theoretical framing and literature-based motivation rather than empirical data (method: narrative/theoretical framing).

Empirical analysis of cases demonstrates that diverse, and often non-ethics-related, levers motivate organizations to abandon AI development.
Analysis of cases drawn from the AI incident database and practitioner survey contrasted with the taxonomy from the scoping review; specific counts/effect measures not provided in the summary.

While Agentic AI enhances economic performance, its benefits are mediated by structural conditions and are unevenly distributed across countries (i.e., reinforcing core–periphery inequalities).
