Manipulation Detection in Retail AI: Causal Inference for the Personalization–Manipulation Boundary

Defining the mathematical boundary between helpful personalization and harmful manipulation using causal reasoning and responsibility gates

Retail recommendation systems operate between beneficial personalization and potentially manipulative behavior. This paper introduces a causal-inference framework that defines the personalization-manipulation boundary, enabling retail AI agents to operate within explicit ethical constraints while routing boundary violations to human review.

Pricing Responsibility in Retail AI: Welfare-Constrained Dynamic Pricing with Fail-Closed Gates

A formal framework for ensuring AI-driven pricing decisions preserve consumer welfare through responsibility gates and counterfactual fairness constraints

Dynamic pricing algorithms optimize revenue in real time, but unconstrained optimization can increase vulnerability and unfair outcomes. This paper introduces a Pricing Responsibility Gate that evaluates each price change against welfare constraints, fairness criteria, and reversibility conditions, so AI pricing can remain within explicit governance boundaries while preserving business value.
