Integrating Local Wisdom with Artificial Intelligence: Education and Arts Innovation in the Technological Era

Abstract

In the era of sophisticated globalization, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly pervasive in various areas, including education and art. This paper explores how the integration between AI and local wisdom can create innovations that not only enhance the qualityof learning, but also enrich artistic expressions with traditional cultural roots. In the education context, AI has the potential to present a learning approach that is more personalized and adaptive, based on the needs and cultural background of each individual. With the assistance of technology, traditional wisdom elements can be integrated into interactive and context-based learning materials, so students can understand their own cultural values more deeply. On the other hand, in the art realm, AI enables the artist to experimenting with a variety of new mediums while still preserving the local cultural essence. For example, AI algorithms can be used to remix traditional motifs, revitalize nearly extinct local art, or create digital artworks that incorporate cultural elements from different regions. However, the main challenging in this endeavor is to maintain a balance between technological adaptation and preservation of traditional values. When technology develops rapidly, there is a possibility that the essentiality of local wisdom may be eroded by the effects of globalization, thus making the ethics in the application of AI a crucial aspect. This paper also reviews some case studies and current literature on the application of AI that takes cultural values into consideration, and provides recommendations to ensure that technological developments can contribute to the sustainability of local cultures. This is expected to create an inclusive education and arts ecosystem, where cultural diversity is recognized and valued. Technology is thus not only a tool, but also a catalyst in strengthening cultural identity and encouraging innovation based on local values. This article presents a new perspective on how collaboration between AI and local wisdom can create meaningful opportunities for cultural sustainability, while building a strong foundation for future innovation in education and the arts
