Functional and economic remedies are effective in awakening empathy and forgiveness, while empathic remedies are effective in reducing perceived bottlenecks. Interestingly, empathetic users are \u201cpickier\u201d. Further social network analysis reveals that problem solving timeliness, software flexibility, model updating and special data (voice and image) analysis capabilities are beneficial in breaking perceived bottlenecks. Besides, heterogeneity analysis show that eastern users are more sensitive to the price factor and are more likely to generate forgiveness through economic remedy, and there is a dual interaction between basic attributes and extra boosts in the East and West.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Originality\/value<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The \u201cgap\u201d between negative (positive) user reviews and ratings, that is consumer forgiveness and perceived bottlenecks, is identified in unstructured text; the study finds that empathy helps to awaken user forgiveness and understanding, while it is limited to bottleneck breakthroughs; the dataset includes a wide range of countries and regions, findings are tested in a cross-language and cross-cultural perspective, which makes the study more robust, and the heterogeneity of users' cultural backgrounds is also analyzed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/k-06-2024-1458","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,11]],"date-time":"2024-09-11T01:46:46Z","timestamp":1726019206000},"page":"50-74","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Speaking with a \u201cforked tongue\u201d \u2013 misalignment between user ratings and textual emotions in LLMs"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"55","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9162-4908","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Yixing","family":"Yang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"South China University of Technology Department of Electronic Business, , ,","place":["Guangzhou, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8929-9840","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jianxiong","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"South China University of Technology Department of Electronic Business, , ,","place":["Guangzhou, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"140","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,11]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"2026010512524354400_ref001","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"189","DOI":"10.1007\/s40732-014-0100-5","article-title":"Developing the implicit relational assessment procedure (IRAP) as a measure of self-forgiveness related to failing and succeeding behaviors","volume":"65","author":"Bast","year":"2015","journal-title":"Psychological Record"},{"key":"2026010512524354400_ref002","volume-title":"The Altruism Question\u2014Toward a Social Psychological Answer","author":"Batson","year":"1991"},{"issue":"2","key":"2026010512524354400_ref003","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"164","DOI":"10.1177\/0049124113494572","article-title":"Total, direct, and indirect effects in logit and probit models","volume":"42","author":"Breen","year":"2013","journal-title":"Sociological Methods and Research"},{"key":"2026010512524354400_ref004","first-page":"1","volume-title":"Human-Technology Interaction","author":"B\u00fcttner","year":"2022"},{"issue":"2","key":"2026010512524354400_ref005","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"290","DOI":"10.1108\/tr-02-2023-0088","article-title":"ChatGPT for tourism: applications, benefits and risks","volume":"79","author":"Carvalho","year":"2024","journal-title":"Tourism Review"},{"issue":"0","key":"2026010512524354400_ref006","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"803","DOI":"10.1007\/s10462-018-9614-6","article-title":"Problem formulations and solvers in linear SVM: a review","volume":"52","author":"Chauhan","year":"2019","journal-title":"Artificial Intelligence Review"},{"issue":"6","key":"2026010512524354400_ref007","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"988","DOI":"10.1037\/0012\u20131649.32.6.988","article-title":"Empathy in conduct-disordered and comparison youth","volume":"32","author":"Cohen","year":"1996","journal-title":"Developmental Psychology"},{"issue":"2","key":"2026010512524354400_ref008","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"144","DOI":"10.1177\/17540739145584","article-title":"Empathy: a review of the concept","volume":"8","author":"Cuff","year":"2016","journal-title":"Emotion review"},{"issue":"7944","key":"2026010512524354400_ref009","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"423","DOI":"10.1038\/d41586-023-00056-7","article-title":"Abstracts written by ChatGPT fool scientists","volume":"613","author":"Else","year":"2023","journal-title":"Nature"},{"issue":"12","key":"2026010512524354400_ref010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2993","DOI":"10.1108\/k-07-2019-0520","article-title":"Towards techniques, challenges and efforts of software as a service layer based on business applications in cloud environments","volume":"49","author":"Fardinpour","year":"2020","journal-title":"Kybernetes"},{"issue":"1","key":"2026010512524354400_ref011","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"10","DOI":"10.1177\/00222429211066972","article-title":"Bad news?
