Abstract

In the article we discus about The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), which is expected to drive rapid economic development, with AI replacing labour and new professions emerging in Ajara. Georgia, a country with limited global economic growth trends, should try to identify primary development directions and create business incubator spaces for effective model functioning in the tourism sector, particularly in Adjara. Adjara, a popular tourist destination, can capitalize on this trend by implementing 4IR technologies. AI can provide personalized travel suggestions, automate customer care, and identify scams. Big data analytics can analyse tourist movements, find new market opportunities, and create successful marketing efforts. Bots can provide tourist information and services, and IoT can develop smart tourism destinations with features like real-time traffic information and smart parking. In this term, we think that the collaboration between public and commercial sectors, forward-thinking policies, and significant human resource expenditures are essential for achieving the full potential of 4IR in Adjara's tourism sector. The article aims to evaluate the potential impact of 4IR technologies on the Adjara tourism industry, identify opportunities and challenges, and provide recommendations for sustainable growth.
