Application and pathways of AIGC in the digital transference and transformation of traditional Chinese cultural symbols

The rapid development of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AIGC) provides an innovative pathway for the digital transference and transformation of traditional Chinese cultural symbols. By constructing a three-dimensional "technology-symbol-culture" analytical framework, this study systematically investigates the application mechanisms of AIGC in content innovation, experience transformation, and communication enhancement. It proposes a macro-level pathway of "preservation-analysis-innovation," designs differentiated transference strategies for various symbol types such as patterns, narratives, and behaviors, and refines the micro-level operational process of "data-algorithm-evaluation." Through human-machine collaboration, AIGC facilitates the transition of traditional culture from static preservation to dynamic revitalization, significantly enhancing its contemporary vitality and international influence. However, vigilance against cultural misinterpretation and ethical risks in technological application is necessary. The future should focus on building a sustainable "human-machine symbiosis" creative ecosystem.
