In the era of data-driven digital commerce, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based product personalization has become a key strategy to enhance user experience and foster customer loyalty. However, in the Indonesian e-commerce landscape, there remains a lack of empirical understanding of how personalization systems influence long-term user engagement. This study investigates the impact of AI-driven product personalization on customer loyalty among Indonesian e-commerce users. Employing a mixed-methods approach, quantitative data were collected through an online survey of 150 active users, and qualitative insights were obtained from in-depth interviews with six informants. Statistical analysis using simple linear regression revealed that personalization significantly influences customer loyalty, with a beta coefficient of 0.653 (t = 8.241, p < 0.001) and an R² value of 0.567. Qualitative findings highlight user concerns over recommendation accuracy, interface overload, and repetitive suggestions, which affect emotional satisfaction and platform attachment. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on AI adoption in e-commerce by integrating behavioral and technological dimensions of loyalty formation. It also offers practical implications for designing more context-sensitive personalization systems that prioritize not only algorithmic precision but also user control and experience quality.
