Summary: | Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the latest machine technology that is replacing the effort of humans
and is the fastest-growing sector across the globe. The underlying ethos of AI is to create a
secure ecosystem for every human endeavour. Investors are claiming that the invention of an
AI assistant such as a robot maid is the future reality. The AI robot is unstoppable and will
obstruct how things are done at home. The development of AI and the demand for it indicates a
future challenge to domestic activities. Since technology is replacing human efforts, scholars
and researchers are concerned about the permissibility of Islamic banks to finance AI projects
for the development of robot-maid. A robot maid is likely to exploit gender issues simply because
consumers might prefer an AI maid that is male or female. Social violation in the use of AI maid
will likely trigger further queries. This study uses the doctrinal approach of the qualitative
method to explore Islamic thresholds and analyzes the juristic consideration for financing the
development of AI for human development. The study explains the understanding of AI, its
contributions to the world economy, and some pertinent issues and challenges. This study
found that the growth of AI interventions in homes and care services is a reality, but financing
AI maids requires adherence to Islamic requirements, including Shariah compliance and
consideration of ethical, economic, security, and social concerns. |
