One of the main restrictions is lack of relevant information in the context of Vietnam.
Books, articles of artificial intelligence in advertising are available abundantly online;
however, they are studies in the context of developed markets such as America or UK.
Furthermore, since AI is not yet developed and widely applied in the field of advertising in Vietnam, there are only a few case studies that are relevant to the topic.
The second major restriction is lack of expert working in the field of artificial intelligence to conduct interview. Although contacted interviewees are manager-level in advertising agencies or brands, their knowledge and perspective are only from the agency side. The research results would be broader and in-depth if one or more interviewers are people with technological background.
Last but not least, the knowledge of artificial intelligence and advertising field is yet to be sufficient. As the author’s background is international business, the author’s under-standing of artificial intelligence is limited to basic concepts, e.g. machine learning, rein-forcement learning rather than deeper layer knowledge of the algorithms.
7 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
In this chapter I would like to express my gratitude to people who collaborate with me in for the research purpose of this thesis.
First, I would like to thank Vaasa University of Applied Sciences for structuring a very comprehensive study of International Business. Through this bachelor’s program, I am well equipped with knowledge of diverse fields, ranging from Marketing, Finance to Hu-man Resource Management and Supply Chain Management. Particularly, I am very pleased having been supervised by Mr. Klaus Salonen, who gave guidance and sugges-tions for sources before and during the research process.
Secondly, I would like to express my gratitude to the 3 interviewees: Mr. Kim, Mr. An and Mr. Tu. They are very kind to spend 30 minutes sharing their understanding of arti-ficial intelligence in their daily work life. Their insights are very eye-opening and con-tributes significantly to the study.
