Innovative Approaches to Preserving Intangible Cultural Heritage through AI-Driven Interactive Experiences

Abstract

The preservation of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) is critically challenged by globalization and the rapid evolution of technology. This paper explores innovative strategies for safeguarding ICH using AI-driven interactive experiences, leveraging cutting-edge technologies such as virtual reality (VR), machine learning (ML), and natural language processing (NLP). These technologies not only enable the creation of immersive and personalized experiences that engage users emotionally but also serve to rejuvenate and sustain traditional cultural practices. By detailing specific applications in real-world settings, this study illustrates the transformative potential of AI in making cultural heritage dynamically accessible and engaging. Furthermore, it discusses the broader implications of this technological intervention, emphasizing how AI can contribute to cultural diversity and foster global appreciation of heritage in a sustainable manner. The findings underscore the crucial role AI can play in preserving the rich tapestry of global cultural heritage for future generations.
