AI's rapid development has already affected the economy and society, and it might revolutionize how goods and services are manufactured and categorized. This affects the country's production, employment rate, and competitiveness. This research aims to determine how emotions (good and negative) impact deep learning technologies and company startup intentions. The research also examined how emotion recognition influences online entrepreneurship education and how deep learning and entrepreneurship are connected. In conclusion, the research is one of the pioneering efforts that provides a comprehensive grasp of deep learning and facial recognition in entrepreneurship. 78 of the 650 replies were insufficient, according to the statistics. Some individuals constantly picked 3, while others submitted blank questionnaires. The answer is inadequate. 572 surveys were utilized for the study. Positive emotions affect the urge to establish a company, according to the research. People who are generally happy may be able to develop their entrepreneurial expertise and be more driven to behave entrepreneurially. Positive and negative emotions have a significant impact on the deep learning technology and entrepreneurial intention connection. The findings imply that individuals who often experience pleasant emotions may be better able to improve their entrepreneurial cognition and, as a consequence, their drive to engage in entrepreneurial activity. The facial recognition model in entrepreneurship significantly moderates the relationship between deep learning technology and entrepreneurial intention (=0.262, p 0.001); hence, hypotheses 6, 7, and 8 are validated. This provides support for the hypothesized results, claiming that facial recognition plays a significant role in determining the relationship between deep learning technology and entrepreneurial intention. The results would be significant for university students, academicians, and policymakers as they seek to link practices and outcomes. The study is among the pioneers on issues related to deep learning mechanisms in eastern China.
