Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing research across a broad spectrum of disciplines, with impactful & profound implications for the humanities and social sciences. This conference invites scholars and researchers to explore how AI can transform research methodologies and highlight societal challenges. From advancing crime prediction and social security to fostering green innovations in environmental, economic, and governance research, in addition to research in all fields of humanities and social sciences. AI opens new pathways for analysis and solution-building.

The conference themes emphasize the intersection of AI and social sciences, from enhancing collaborative community-based research to driving innovation in family and childhood studies, Islamic law, and fine arts. AI’s role in shaping research agendas is essential, as it enables deeper insights, more accurate predictions, and data-driven approaches to addressing complex ethical, social, and environmental concerns. These themes also encourage discussions on responsible use of AI technologies, ensuring that the deployment of AI in social science research is ethical, transparent, and aligned with societal needs.
