The Possibilities of Applying Artificial Intelligence in Cultural Heritage Preservation
Absztrakt
Digital technologies, including the increasingly prevalent artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, offer opportunities in creative and art mediation practices while also raising questions regarding their application. The application of artificial intelligence presents challenges for cultural professionals, particularly in light of the ethical and social issues surrounding AI-generated art. When shaping institutional practices, decision-makers must consider societal processes that influence audience preferences. Alongside the evolution of art mediation methods, digital technologies also play a crucial role in cultural heritage preservation and conservation. In terms of application goals, AI tools enable the reconstruction or reinterpretation of cultural assets more accurately and rapidly than ever before. The aim of my research is to highlight current practices in art projects at both international and national levels, as well as to explore problems that shape artistic and cultural discourses in the context of AI implementation.
