Title of the paper : Artificial Intelligence and Indigenous Language Preservation: Revitalizing Endangered Languages through Digital Innovation

Abstract: Indigenous languages are invaluable repositories of cultural identity, traditional ecological knowledge, oral history, and collective memory. However, globalization, urbanization, language shift, and the dominance of major world languages have accelerated the decline of many Indigenous languages, placing thousands at risk of extinction. The loss of a language signifies not only the disappearance of a communication system but also the erosion of unique worldviews, cultural practices, and ancestral knowledge. Artificial Intelligence AI has emerged as a transformative technology with significant potential to support the preservation, revitalization, and documentation of Indigenous languages.
