The Role of Artificial Intelligence Technologies in the Conservation and Legal Protection of Cultural Heritage Site

Abstract

Abstract: Modern technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), are among the most important means by which they can play a prominent role in preserving cultural heritage and enhancing interaction between different peoples and cultures. By combining technology with human creativity, AI can open new horizons in exploring, understanding, and documenting heritage, making the human experience with their history and culture richer and more innovative. Cultural heritage represents a human characteristic shared by all people. It embodies evidence of human cultural and civilizational activities, while the philosophy of cultural heritage is based on the principle of preserving and promoting this heritage. From this standpoint, the human and legal duty to preserve and protect cultural heritage as it is emerges, without allowing it to disappear or change. Therefore, AI technologies contribute to the preservation and management of cultural properties, whether individual or collective, in a way that ensures the protection of heritage values and the enhancement of its social, economic, and environmental benefits in a way that achieves the maximum possible benefit from these properties.
