Renowned Islamic scholar Dr Zakir Naik on Friday urged the Islamic world to conduct research with artificial intelligence (AI).
Expressing his thoughts, Naik said: “It is unfortunate that modern technology and media are under the control of Jews. I feel that the Muslims are blessed with the black gold in the form of petrol. With the usage of petrol in a right way, we [Muslims] can control the media.”
“Unfortunately, we spend our money not in a fair way,” he stated.
Stressing the need for modern technology, saying, “The AI is a modern technology that provides you with answers to any questions. AI has made things easier for daily life use.”
“Once, working in the field of graphics was tough, but the AI has made it easy to generate graphics. Copying anything is also become much easier with the usage of the AI,” Dr. Naik added.
“If we will conduct research on AI and use it in the right way, I believe no tool is better than AI in history to spread the true message of Islam,” Dr Naik stated.
Dr. Naik also acknowledged the spirit of the Pakistani nation. “Wherever I meet Pakistanis, whether in Malaysia, the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, or Dubai, they [the Pakistani people] have a great spirit for Islam.
He urged the Islamic world to use the AI tool for spreading the true spirit of Islam.
