In addition, it has an interdependent relationship with business logistics. Also, AI is intervened in transportation logistics to solve transportation issues. Also, it is used for optimizing and obtaining possible solutions for critical and complex problems. This paper aims to optimize costs and profit to get satisfaction for individuals and organizations using AI techniques. A proposed methodology consisted of two phases. The first phase discusses data collection, and the second involves applying FGA Artificial Intelligence techniques. A proposed Transportation Logistics model was used to determine boundary profit for each Product, and a Fuzzy Genetic Algorithm FGA for transportation logistics was done to solve transportation issues. According to that, outcomes were detected by optimizing the transportation cost by detecting the parent's and the child's chromosomes, and it took the number of iterations =2000. Also, between 100 loops, the best of 5 loops took 1.53 Millie seconds per loop Using GA. Similarly, GA was used for optimizing the minimum total cost of the Product also by determining parents and child chromosomes, which took the Number of iterations= 2000, and among 100 loops, the best five loops took 1.40 ms per loop. Moreover, determining the profit boundary of each predicted Product using triangular fuzzy logic shows that the minimum profit is considered between (20 million and 23.9 million), while the moderate profit is (24 million), and the maximum profit is more than (24.1 million).","PeriodicalId":250160,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business and Management Studies","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128326319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As technology advances, more companies are emerging, and it is evident that multiple businesses have developed products that are comparable to one another. To expose the products to the market and attract customers, each of these businesses adopts unique description techniques. This sometimes results in information overload. The study sought to investigate the role of information overload on consumers’ online shopping behavior. Based on reviews of relevant theories and principles of the consumer decision-making process, questionnaires were used to gather data from 201 respondents. The findings revealed that as a textual description of product attributes increases, so do the perceptions of information overload, and customers become overwhelmed while trying to process the information. The findings indicated that information overload significantly causes consumers to experience stress, frustration, and perceived risk. Following the study findings, it recommended that managers realize that excessive information can potentially decrease consumers' ability to analyze attributes of products and to compare alternatives; hence, they should analyze the scope to which the amount of provided information can be processed by their target consumers without difficulty.","PeriodicalId":250160,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business and Management Studies","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122859557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
