Abstract
There is a lot of hype about autonomous vehicles (AV) but there are few studies on how people feel about this innovative product. To fill this research gap and to provide richer insights on this subject, this study crawled 10,374 AV-related comments from a microblogging website and used sentiment analysis to evaluate people’s feelings and perceptions. The results show that people’s sentiments depend not just on the AVs (e.g., their safety and convenience) but also AVs’ impact on society, such as unemployment and legislation. The sentiments therefore transcend beyond individual considerations. The paper discusses the implications of the results and the contributions to the AV literature.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning.
The journal provides an interface between technology and other corporate functions, such as R&D, marketing, manufacturing and administration.
