Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming a game-changer in the world of arts and cultural heritage. No longer limited to experimental projects, AI technologies — particularly in the field of computer vision — are now being used to detect forged artworks, analyze historical damage, guide restoration efforts and automate the digitization of vast collections. But the impact doesn’t stop there. AI is also powering personalized museum experiences, creating immersive storytelling environments and enabling data-driven decision-making for curators and cultural institutions.

In this blog post, we explore six major AI trends that are reshaping the way cultural assets are authenticated, preserved, organized and shared with the world. From off-the-shelf APIs for quick integration to long-term custom solutions, AI offers scalable pathways for institutions seeking to modernize without losing their historical essence. Whether you're a museum director, digital archivist or cultural technologist, these trends provide a roadmap to making your collections smarter, more accessible and future-proof.
