| Objectives: The study aims to explore the effects of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the tourism sector and assess the potential reflections of these effects on tourists, particularly in the context of the" Dead Internet Theory." It examines how AI, as a technology capable of learning and problem-solving, can enhance customer satisfaction, reduce costs, and optimize business processes within the tourism industry.Methods: The study utilizes a conceptual analysis of the" Dead Internet Theory" and its implications for the tourism sector.
