“AI is like a knife; it can cut an apple and kill people<\/em>.”<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He emphasized that AI is pervasive and cannot be ignored, akin to a fast-moving train where understanding its direction is crucial, especially concerning ethical considerations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prof. Fauzan underscored the imperative of ethics in AI development and usage, stressing the need for comprehensive understanding amid its rapid evolution. He highlighted the Qur\u2019an’s guidance on moral conduct, ethical decision-making, and human responsibilities, which he believes provides crucial insights into managing the complexities of AI. Moslem direction he compared \u201cQibla\u201d as the destination or direction for moslem travelling by fast train. Emphasizing AI’s lack of emotional and spiritual dimensions highlighted in the Qur\u2019an, such as empathy and compassion, Prof. Fauzan argued for integrating ethical principles rooted in human values into AI frameworks. He advocated for a holistic approach that combines technological advancement with ethical teachings to ensure AI applications are both innovative and respectful of societal values and moral standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Q&A session, Prof. Dr. Mohamad Fauzan bin Noordin, Director of IIIT East and Southeast Asia, addressed various inquiries from participants. Prof. Murniati Mukhlisin from Institut Agama Islam Tazkia sought advice on advancing UAI through AI, to which Prof. Fauzan emphasized leveraging AI to enhance educational practices and administrative efficiencies. Responding to Prof. Asep’s question regarding the implementation and ethics of AI at International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), he discussed integrating ethical frameworks into AI applications to ensure alignment with Islamic principles. Additionally, Faisal Hendra’s query about national policies on social media and gadget use prompted insights into the importance of ethical governance and regulatory frameworks to mitigate potential societal impacts, reflecting a comprehensive approach to AI adoption and governance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
