Abstract
With the continuous change in human civilization triggered by the rapid development of technology, it is worth considering the role of AI in the inheritance of traditional culture. This essay primarily investigates the impact of AI technology on traditional culture and applies Chinese culture as a case study. Through introducing the prevalence of artificial intelligence, demonstrating the functions of AI in the spread of traditional culture, and analyzing the pros and cons brought by AI, this essay utilizes both quantitative and qualitative analysis to reveal the overall influence of AI in the case of Chinese traditional culture. This essay will be helpful for researchers and scholars interested in topics related to the future expectations of Chinese culture and students who are learning the change brought by AI to the cultural impact of artificial intelligence.
