In this section, the impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies on influencer marketing are examined within a multidimensional framework. AI is transforming digital marketing strategies through personalisation, automation, content creation, and data analytics, significantly enhancing effectiveness and efficiency—particularly in influencer selection and campaign management. Advanced algorithms enable more accurate analyses of influencers in terms of brand fit and target audience impact, thereby establishing a data-driven foundation for strategic decision-making processes.

Virtual influencers stand out due to their cost efficiency and controllability; however, they face limitations in terms of human qualities such as authenticity, empathy, and trust-building. This has encouraged the development of hybrid models based on collaboration between human influencers and artificial intelligence, allowing content creation to combine both analytical precision and emotional resonance.

From the consumer perspective, trust in AI-driven influencers remains limited, with transparency, privacy, and ethical concerns playing a decisive role in shaping this trust. AI-supported influencer marketing therefore requires an approach that integrates technological capabilities with human values—one that is data-driven yet designed with ethical sensitivity. In this context, AI assumes a critical role as a complementary and strategic element in the future of influencer marketing.
