• Platforming Heritage: The Mediation of Kashmiri Pashmina on Instagram (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  Further research is needed to explore the ways in which digital preservation can be used to promote cultural heritage. The study suggests that future research should investigate the role of social media in shaping our understanding of cultural heritage. The study highlights the need for further research on the intersection of cultural heritage and economic livelihood

• Navigating the Ethical Labyrinth: (2026) · Culture Unbound Journal of Current Cultural Research · doi

  This research’s assessment of the use of AI in cultural heritage conservation provides critical awareness and includes a number of limitations that must be acknowledged. The approach of digital ethnography depends entirely on openly available online resources, possibly eliminating stakeholders with restricted digital presence, which is predominantly from marginalised groups and communities. Practical AI implementations must include technological methods, oral narratives, and cultural histories, elements probably underrepresented in this methodology. The one Western case study of the Dalí Museum restricts generalising across various organisational environments with changing resources and cultural operations.

The research chiefly utilises Western academic structures while lacking a comprehensive assessment of Global South milieus, mirroring persistent digital divides in cultural depiction. The authenticity structure used depends on theoretical differences between the original and recreated AI challenges. Jokilehto states that “truthfulness of information sources as a fundamental prerequisite for the definition of authenticity” (Jokilehto 2006: 8) presumes borders that rising technologies distort. In addition, the investigation inadequately studies community engagement in AI­driven heritage projects. Without community involvement, initiatives can pose the threat of estranging or misrepresenting these groups or communities if their views are not heard. Future studies should unswervingly involve societies or communities whose heritage is undergoing digitisation and scrutinise execution across various organisational backgrounds.
