인공지능 기술의 비약적인 발전으로 인하여, 사용자의 편의성 증대를 목적으로 다양한 분야에서 관련된 제품과 서비스들의 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 기술의 발전에는 긍정적인 파급 효과에 대한 기대감이 존재하나, 향후 발생 가능한 부정적인 측면에 대한 논의도 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 예를 들어, 인공지능 기술 기반의 자율주행 자동차의 경우 안정성의 향상이라는 측면에서 많은 관심을 받고 있으나, 트롤리 딜레마, 시스템 보안 문제 등의 사회적 이슈 또한 활발히 논의되고 있다. 이에 따라, 인공지능 관련 기술의 발전과 사회적 수용을 위해서는 사회적으로 논의되는 주요 관련 이슈들에 대한 확인과 효과적인 분석이 요구된다. 이를 위해, 본 연구에서는 '이세돌 vs 알파고' 시점인 2016년 3월을 포함하여 2016년 1월부터 2017년 12월까지 2년 동안의 인공지능과 관련된 사회적인 이슈들을 파악하고 온라인상에서 발생되는 사회적 여론에 대하여 다 범주 감성을 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 국내 대표적인 포털 사이트에서 인공지능 관련 뉴스의 수와 관련된 뉴스 제목, 뉴스의 댓글을 웹 크롤링(Web Crawling) 하였다. 사회적 여론에 대한 다 범주 감성 분석은 논의되는 이슈들의 중요성을 고려하여 단순 긍정 또는 부정이 아닌, 분노, 혐오, 두려움, 행복, 중립, 슬픔, 놀라움의 7가지 다 범주 감성으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 대부분의 이벤트 기간에 대하여 1위 감성은 '행복'으로 나타났지만 각 키워드에 대하여 나오는 감성이 상이함을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 2016년 상반기, 하반기, 2017년 상반기, 하반기로 나누어 보았을 때 시간이 지남에 따라 '분노'의 감성이 낮아짐을 확인하였다. 이러한 분석 결과를 바탕으로 인공지능과 관련하여 현재 논의되고 있는 다양한 이슈와 동향 파악이 가능하며, 이에 대한 대응 방안 마련에 활용이 가능할 것이다. 향후 감성 분석기의 성능 향상과 댓글에 대한 공감 및 비공감도의 가중치를 추가하여 분석한다면 사회적 여론을 보다 세밀하게 파악 할 수 있을 것이다.

The research conducted here focuses on the effect of factors that affect the behavior of UCC (User Created Content) website users, other than user's rational recognition of how useful a UCC website can be. Most discussions in the existing literature on information systems have focused on users' evaluation how a UCC website can help to attain the users' own goals. However, there are other factors and this research pays attention to an individual's 'personality,' which is stable and biological in nature. Specifically, I have noted here that 'extroversion' and 'neuroticism,' the two common personality factors presented in Eysenck's most representative 'EPQ Model' and 'Big Five Model,' are the two personality factors that affect a site's 'usefulness,' by this I mean how useful does the user consider the website and its content. How useful a site is considered by the user is the other factor that has been regarded as the antecedent factor that influences the adoption of information systems in the existing MIS (Management Information System) research. Secondly, as using or creating a UCC website does not guarantee the user's or the creator's extrinsic motivation, unlike when using the information system within an organization, there is a greater likelihood that the increase in user's activities in relation to a UCC website is motivated by emotional factors rather than rational factors. Thus, I have decided to include the relationship between an individual's personality and what they find pleasurable in the research model. Thirdly, when based on the S-O-R Paradigm of Mehrabian and Russell, the two cognitive factors and emotional factors are finally affected by stimulus, and thus these factors ultimately have an effect on an individual's respondent behavior. Therefore, this research has presented an assumption that the recognition of how useful the site and content is and what emotional pleasure it provides will finally affect the behavior of the UCC website users. Finally, the relationship between the recognition of how useful a site is and how pleasurable it is to useand UCC usage may differ depending on certain situational conditions. In other words, the relationship between the three factors may vary according to how much users are involved in the creation of the website content. Creation thus emerges as the keyword of UCC. I analyzed the above relationships through the moderating variable of the user's involvement in the creation of the site. The research result shows the following: When it comes to the relationship between an individual's personality and what they find pleasurable it is extroverted users who have a greater likelihood to feel pleasure when using a UCC website, as was expected in this research. This in turn leads to a more active usage of the UCC web site because a person who is an extrovert likes to spend time on activities with other people, is sensitive to new experiences and stimuli and thus actively responds to these. An extroverted person accepts new UCC activities as part of his/her social life, rather than getting away from this new UCC environment. This is represented by the term 'Foxonomy' where the users meet a variety of users from all over the world and contact new types of content created by these users. However, neuroticism creates the opposite situation to that created by extroversion. The representative symptoms of neuroticism are instability, stress, and tension. These dispositions are more closely related to stress caused by a new environment rather than this creatingcuriosity or pleasure. Thus, neurotic persons have an uneasy feeling and will eventually avoid the situation where their own or others' daily lives are frequently exposed to the open web environment, this eventually makes them have a negative attitude towards the web environment. When it comes to an individual's personality and how useful site is, the two personality factors of extroversion and neuroticism both have a positive relationship with the recognition of how useful the site and its content is. The positive, curious, and social dispositions of extroverted persons tend to make them consider the future usefulness and possibilities of a new type of information system, or website, based on their positive attitude, which has a significant influence on the recognition of how useful these UCC sites are. Neuroticism also favorably affects how useful a UCC website can be through a different mechanism from that of extroversion. As the neurotic persons tend to feel uneasy and have much doubt about a new type of information system, they actively explore its usefulness in order to relieve their uncomfortable feelings. In other words, neurotic persons seek out how useful a site can be in order to secure their own stable feelings. Meanwhile, extroverted persons explore how useful a site can be because of their positive attitude and curiosity. As a lot of MIS research has revealed that the recognition of how useful a site can be and how pleasurable it can be to use have been proven to have a significant effect on UCC activity. However, the relationship between these factors reveals different aspects based on the user's involvement in creation. This factor of creationgauges the interest of users in the creation of UCC contents. Involvement is a variable that shows the level of an individual's mental effort in creating UCC contents. When a user is highly involved in the creation process and makes an enormous effort to create UCC content (classed a part of a high-involvement group), their own pleasure and recognition of how useful the site is have a significantly higher effect on the future usage of the UCC contents, more significantly than the users who sit back and just retrieve the UCC content created by others. The cognitive and emotional response of those in the low-involvement group is unlikely to last long,even if they recognize the contents of a UCC website is pleasurable and useful to them. However, the high-involvement group tends to participate in the creation and the usage of UCC more favorably, connecting the experience with their own goals. In this respect, this research presents an answer to the question; why so many people are participating in the usage of UCC, the representative form of the Web 2.0 that has drastically involved more and more people in the creation of UCC, even if they cannot gain any monetary or social compensation. Neither information system nor a website can succeed unless it secures a certain level of user base. Moreover, it cannot be further developed when the reasons, or problems, for people's participation are not suitably explored, even if it has a certain user base. Thus, what is significant in this research is that it has studied users' respondent behavior based on an individual's innate personality, emotion, and cognitive interaction, unlike the existing research that has focused on 'compensation' to explain users' participation with the UCC website. There are also limitations in this research. Firstly, I divided an individual's personality into extroversion and neuroticism; however, there are many other personal factors such as neuro-psychiatricism, which also needs to be analyzed for its influence on UCC activities. Secondly, as a UCC website comes in many types such as multimedia, Wikis, and podcasting, these types need to be included as a sub-category of the UCC websites and their relationship with personality, emotion, cognition, and behavior also needs to be analyzed.
