Project title
Leveraging Generative AI for Sustainable Marketing
Project description
My PhD project investigates the impact of generative AI applications within social media on sustainable marketing. The research focuses on how generative AI influences consumer engagement, emphasising overcoming the "information cocoon" created by recommendation algorithms. I explore how those AI technology applications can stimulate greater consumer participation in sustainable marketing activities, offering innovative solutions for sustainable marketing practices in digital environments.
