An Exploration into the Nature of the Making of Human and Artifcial Intelligence and the Qur’anic Persepctive

The ongoing controversy over artificial and human intelligence is characterized by open disagreement. Some researchers believe that artificial intelligence has the potential to become equal to or even superior to human intelligence, while others say that such a development is impossible. The thesis...
