Based on the literature, we present an artificial intelligence marketing (AIM) framework that enables autonomous machines to receive big data and information, use artificial intelligence (AI) to create knowledge, and then disseminate and apply the knowledge to enhance customer relationships in a knowledge-based environment. To develop the AIM framework, we bring together and curate a wide range of relevant literatures including real-life examples and cases, and then understand how these literatures contribute to the framework in this research topic. We explain the AIM framework from the interdisciplinary perspective, which is an important role of both the artificial intelligence and marketing academia. The AIM framework includes three main components, including the pre-processor, the main processor, and the memory storage. The main processor, which is the key component, uses AI to process structured data processed by pre-processor in order to make real-time decisions and reasonings. The AI approach is characterized by its hypothetical abilities, learning paradigms, and operation modes with human. The strategic use of the developed AIM framework based on the literature to enhance customer relationships, including customer trust, satisfaction, commitment, engagement, and loyalty, is presented. Finally, future potential investigations are presented to drive forward this interdisciplinary research topic.
