Abstract

Bu araştırma yapay zekâ uygulamalarından biri olan ChatGPT’yi turizm rehberliği mesleği eğitiminde ve mesleğin icrasında nasıl kullanılabileceğini değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemiyle veriler görüşme tekniği vasıtasıyla elde edilmiştir. Araştırma kapsamındaki sorular ChatGPT’ye sorulmuş ve bazı cevaplar alınmıştır. ChatGPT’ye “Yapay zekâ turist rehberliği eğitimine ne gibi katkıda bulunabilir?” sorusu yöneltilmiş ve “Kişiselleştirilmiş Öğrenme Deneyimi, Etkileşimli Eğitim Araçları, Veri Analizi ve Geri Bildirim, Sanal ve Artırılmış Gerçeklik, Çok Dilli Eğitim, Güncel İçerik ve Bilgi Sağlama, Soruları Yanıtlama, Eğitim Materyali Geliştirme” cevabı alınmıştır. Bir diğer soru olan “Turist rehberi turlarda yapay zekâyı nasıl kullanabilir” sorusu yönlendirilmiş ve “Sanal Rehberlik, Kişiselleştirilmiş Öneriler, İnteraktif Haritalar ve Navigasyon, Dil Çeviri Uygulamaları, Gerçek Zamanlı Bilgilendirme, Eğlenceli ve Etkileşimli İçerik, Sosyal Medya ve İçerik Paylaşımı, Geri Bildirim ve Değerlendirme” cevapları alınmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda turizm rehberliği öğrencileri ve turist rehberleri için yapay zekânın önemli ve eğitim ve mesleğin icrasında destek verici bir kaynak oluşturabileceği ön görülmüştür. Ayrıca bu araştırma yapay zekâ ile turist rehberliği mesleğini inceleyen gelecek çalışamalara öncü olabileceği düşünülmektedir.
