INTRODUCTION
Artificial Intelligence has been growing in prominence in digital
marketing strategies due to its various benefits and potential implications. By
harnessing the power of AI, companies can gain valuable insights into customer
behavior and preferences, allowing them to create highly targeted and
personalized marketing campaigns (MR, 2021). In addition, AI technology
allows companies to automate tasks and processes, increasing efficiency and
productivity (Peyravi et al., 2020). Moreover, AI can analyze large data sets in
real-time, so companies can make data-driven decisions and optimize
marketing strategies for better results (Badica & Mitucă, 2021). In short, the
integration of AI into digital marketing strategies offers the potential to
improve customer understanding, increase efficiency, and enhance decision-
making capabilities, ultimately leading to better overall marketing performance
and business success (Aladayleh, 2020).
Implementing AI in digital marketing strategies is becoming increasingly
important for businesses to stay competitive and improve their marketing
efforts. With rapid technological advancements, artificial intelligence has
emerged as a powerful tool in digital marketing strategies (Peyravi et al., 2020).
It has revolutionized the way companies interact with customers and has
proven to be a game-changer in terms of customer engagement, conversion
rates, and overall marketing success (Badica & Mitucă, 2021). By leveraging AI
in their digital marketing strategies, businesses can collect and analyze large
amounts of data, thus allowing them to gain valuable insights into customer
behavior and preferences (Fuaddah et al., 2022).
In today's digital age, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in digital
marketing strategy has become increasingly significant. As technology
continues to advance, businesses are leveraging AI to enhance their marketing
efforts and gain a competitive edge in the digital landscape. This study will
delve into the multifaceted role of AI in digital marketing strategy and explore
the myriad benefits it offers to businesses seeking to optimize their online
presence and engage with their target audience in more meaningful ways.
THEORETICAL REVIEW
Understanding Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence is a fictitious word that refers to a computer or a
computer-enabled robotic system's capacity to process information and create
outputs that are comparable to human cognitive processes in learning, decision
making, and problem solving. It originated in 1956 and has since seen several
ups and downs in terms of interest and research. Artificial intelligence,
commonly referred to as AI, has become a prominent field in computer science
and technology (Truong & Diep, 2023).
The objective of AI systems is to create systems that can solve
complicated issues in ways that are akin to human logic and reasoning. AI is
rapidly being used in a variety of industries, including marketing, finance,
military, and sports, and its use is evolving in tandem with technical
improvements.

To comprehend the role of AI in digital marketing strategy, it is crucial to
understand what artificial intelligence encompasses in the context of marketing
(Alkhayyat & Ahmed, 2022). AI technologies in digital marketing comprise a
wide range of tools and applications, including machine learning, natural
language processing, predictive analytics, and others (MR, 2021). These AI-
driven capabilities enable marketers to analyze vast amounts of data, automate
repetitive tasks, personalize customer experiences, and derive actionable
insights to inform their marketing strategies (Sholihah & Saputra, 2022).
AI technology allows companies to analyze large amounts of data to gain
insights into customer behavior, preferences, and demands (Mao & Huang,
2021). As a result, they are able to build more targeted and individualized
marketing efforts that resonate with their target demographic (Cui et al., 2022).
In addition, AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants provide valuable
support to customers throughout their purchasing journey, enhancing their
overall experience (Perret & Heitkamp, 2021). By leveraging AI technology for
marketing purposes, companies can stay ahead of their competition and
maximize their business opportunities (Djermani & Hajimia, 2021).
Furthermore, AI technology can optimize forecasting and pricing strategies,
identify customer trends and patterns, and enhance customer relationship
management systems (Zvaigzne et al., 2023).

across all industries and segments, marketers should devote time and money to
testing new methods and ensuring their marketing organization is set up for
long-term success.
FURTHER STUDY
For future research, it is recommended to examine the security and ethical
aspects associated with the use of AI in digital marketing strategies. How can
security policies be implemented, and how can AI ethics affect brand
perception?
