1. INTRODUCCIÓN
En el ámbito del turismo en Europa, la barrera idiomática persiste como
un elemento representativo de la complejidad lingüística que caracte-
riza al continente, generando disparidades incluso dentro de destinos
específicos (Klimczak-Pawlak, 2019). Esta variabilidad lingüística no
sólo añade un matiz cultural diferente a cada destino, sino que también
plantea desafíos prácticos, lo que genera una continua necesidad de
adaptación en la industria turística (Haarhoff y Hass, 2019). Histórica-
mente, estas barreras se han salvado con guías multilingües, formación
en idiomas y folletos traducidos a varias lenguas. Sin embargo, estas
medidas, aunque efectivas, no se ajustan a las necesidades cambiantes
desde el punto de vista de la demanda (Zhang y Schmude, 2022), pues
debido a la evolución tecnológica y a la creciente globalización, emer-

La Inteligencia Artificial (IA) surge como un elemento disruptivo para
varias industrias, entre ellas el turismo (Gursoy et al., 2023). La proli-
feración de aplicaciones que optimizan la funcionalidad de herramien-
tas digitales existentes previamente alcanza el ámbito de la traducción
de contenido digital (Gupta y Gupta, 2023). Así, la aplicación Rask AI
destaca en este panorama al emplear inteligencia artificial para traducir
vídeos a varios idiomas con resultado bastante realista. Este cambio,
producido por la inteligencia artificial, está siendo abarcado por dife-
rentes disciplinas de la comunidad académica, lo que sugiere plantear
si en el caso específico del uso de esta aplicación la industria turística
se encuentra o no ante un nuevo paradigma (Valeri, 2023), que redefina
