Exploring research trends and hotspots in AI and art integration: ROST text mining analysis of China and South Korea

As AI technology continues to advance, the integration of AI and arts has become increasingly significant for countries aiming to become cultural powerhouses and develop robust digital strategies. Modern AI enhances artistic creation, personalized experiences, and accessibility. Therefore, it is necessary to study how AI and arts are currently being integrated. Utilizing text mining techniques, we analyze research papers on AI and art integration in China and Korea using ROST CM 6.0, identifying key trends and differences. Our findings reveal that China focuses on the digital inheritance and transformation of traditional culture in the context of modern AI technology, striving to establish cultural power. In contrast, Korea emphasizes legal rights and standardization in the integration of AI and art, with a strong focus on copyright protection. Future research should prioritize interdisciplinary approaches, examine AI art applications from a macroscopic perspective, and develop strategies for AI to inherit traditional art based on successful global examples. Additionally, ongoing discussions and research on copyright issues arising from AI art integration are essential.
