Many tourism platforms(平台)in China have used AI technologies,while some provinces and
cities have designed their own AI tourism service(服务)platforms with special features.On some
popular tourism platforms,tourists can give simple instructions,such as asking about must | visit
attractions for a three−day trip to Shanghai.AI usually gives helpful answers within minute es.
Mr Liang,CEO of a travel company,said,“ AI solves 80% of users' questions in minutes,
cutting trip−planning time from 9 hours to 6.6 hours."
Guizhou and Shanghai have introduced AI assistants(助手)for travellers.Guizhou's
“ Huang Xiao Xi ",a digital guide in traditional clothing,creates travel plans in just a few
seconds.“ Hu Xiao You ",a smart tourism system used in Shanghai,provides real−time updates
(更新)on traffic at tourist sites,public transport,nearby shops,and even toilet locations.
Museums are also using Al.Wearable smart guides provide guiding tours at a lower cost
than human guides.They also allow visitors to change the speed of introductions according to
their own choice.With new tools like virtual reality(VR,虚拟现实)， augmented reality(AR,
增强现实)， and three−D technology ， users can “ talk ” to historical figures(人物),
“ communicate ” with cultural relics,and watch ancient paintings come to 1 life.These high−tech
methods break down the distance between visitors and cultural heritage(遗产),making ancient
history easier to understand and remember..
Gan Chun hui,a researcher in Shanghai,believes AI brings new ways of working in
tourism.“ Instead of taking the place of traditional jobs,China makes use of technology to
breathe new life into these roles,” Gan said.“ For tourists,this means more personal liz ed and
convenient trips that deepen their understanding of Chinese culture.For local communities,AI
helps keep valuable heritage alive without changing the natural beauty of historical sites,”
