Core Tip	This review focused on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in inflammatory bowel disease management, highlighting its applications in diagnostics, surveillance, treatment management, and clinical trial optimization. AI enables more accurate, objective, and timely evaluations of endoscopic, histological, and clinical data. By synthesizing recent advances the article emphasized the potential of AI to enhance personalized medicine and support real-time decision-making. Despite promising developments challenges remain regarding standardization, validation, and ethical concerns. This comprehensive overview outlined future directions to ensure the safe and effective implementation of AI in routine inflammatory bowel disease care.
