The Use of Generative AI in an Interdisciplinary Approach for Cultural Preservation
David T. Graham · 2023
Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a powerful tool to create new worlds and inject meaning into staid environments. A process of transforming physical space into digital assets becomes necessary to ensure that culturally relevant objects can persist through the changing tides of society. This paper highlights a process whereby physical assets can be digitized and utilized within a generative AI environment while preserving provenance, authenticity, and veracity. It concludes with salient use cases and a discussion that hopefully will lead to more action.
