This study aims to present an update on the evolution of AI-driven digital marketing practices by determining the thematic development and identifying research clusters that have been developed over time. Adopting an objectivist research philosophy, this study employs the bibliometric analysis method on 206 identified research papers from the Scopus database based on the PRISMA framework from 2000 to 2024. The findings identify that the most contributing author is Dwivedi, while the Journal of Business Research is the most contributing journal and the USA is the most contributing country in the research related to AI-driven digital marketing practices. Furthermore, the findings reveal that the research in AI-driven digital marketing practices is grouped into four clusters. In addition, the evolutionary trends are moving toward integrating the Metaverse and generative AI in digital marketing practices for providing immersive (phygital) experiences to customers and building competitive advantage, leading to an exponential growth of research on these topics. This study contributes to the existing knowledge by providing updated AI-driven digital marketing practices in nine categories.
