The Arabic language did not find someone who takes its hand and dismisses it from its stumbling block to join the international languages, at a time when some groups come, so that its language calls for the abundance of forgetfulness and inflates it until it becomes a language that establishes a state on its shoulders, so there is no state without a language, and whoever is excessive in its language has excessive in its existence.
And here is the last opportunity for the Arabs to join the last cart in the artificial intelligence train that is launched at the utmost speed towards the future, and to catch up with this knee requires the concerted Arab efforts combined to provide a complete and correct database for the Arabic language to reach applicable research outputs.
Two weeks ago, the activities of the annual conference of the Arabic Language Complex in Cairo began in its 91st session, entitled: “Enriching the Arabic Language: Means and Means”, and artificial intelligence had a strong and clear existence in the conference sessions, as this was evident on the conference map in the 30th complex committees.
This great interest from officials in the complex appeared in the issues of artificial intelligence applications, and a special committee entitled “The Arabic Language and Artificial Intelligence” was established, on top of which is the great computer scientist Dr. Mohamed Fahmy Tolba, Dean of the Faculty of Computing and former Vice President of Ain Shams University, and a member of the Language Complex in Cairo, who chose for this committee a selected elite of language and computing scholars from university professors.
Artificial Intelligence Revolution
Al -Jazeera Net, Dr. Mohamed Fahmy Tolba, head of the Arabic Language and Artificial Intelligence Committee in the Linguistic Complex in Cairo, and discussed it about the uses of artificial intelligence applications in the Arabic language.
Dr. Tolba said: “During the last three years, the world seemed to be in the nap of the people of the cave, until he woke up from his sleep on what resembles the revolution in the areas of artificial intelligence applications, and what happened was shocking, as every morning we woke up to a flow of artificial intelligence applications, not only in the language, but in technology, military and civil industries.”
During the last three years, the world seemed to be in the nap of the people of the cave, until he woke up from his sleep on what resembles the revolution in the areas of artificial intelligence applications, and what happened was shocked; Every morning, we have woke up to a flow of artificial intelligence applications, not only in the language, but in technology, military and civil industries
He continued that humanity has become in real danger in the face of smart machines, “the mobile in your hand is the product of modern applications for artificial intelligence, as well as smart cars, smart aircraft, and smart bombs. Companies such as Microsoft and others turned into deadly intelligence factories, by directing the most violent and destructive weapons in history. We have seen this clearly in the crazy Gaza war, where the Israeli killing machine worked With all its human hatred of killing and extermination. “
And 3 years ago, Dr. Tolba said, “The Cairo Linguistic Committee established the Arabic Language and Artificial Intelligence Committee, and with the help of a group of distinguished experts we were able to accomplish many works in the service of the complex and its pioneers, and even the service of the Arabic language, by accessing new applications for artificial intelligence within the complex.”
As for the adaptation of artificial intelligence to serve the Arabic language, the doctor stresses that this matter is not easy, as the situation requires the concerted Arab sovereign authorities to enter the era of artificial intelligence, as some describe it. The matter is more difficult for the Arabic language. The Arabic language contains 12 million words, followed by the English language at a rate of 600 thousand words, meaning that the total words of the Arabic language are equivalent to 20 times the words of the English language, and for this the application of artificial intelligence with the Arabic language becomes more difficult than any other language in the world.
He added that besides these challenges, the application of artificial intelligence in the Arabic language began late for many languages in the world, and therefore there is a real challenge in front of the Arabic language complex to treat these points from the perspectives of research trends and applied trends; If the research outputs are applicable, it will clearly support the Arabic language.
Students emphasized that they have made strenuous attempts to the uses of artificial intelligence in the Arabic language, and he says, “The Arabic Language Academy in Cairo has begun to digitize the documents and references that have gone through tens of years and convert them for rapid use of global search engines. And through the parts, we can enter into a new stage for serving the Arabic language and culture, because what the applications of artificial intelligence preach to imagination, and it is easy to integrate the Arabic language as an important language between World languages. ”
Difficulty translation from Arabic
On the difficulties facing the translation of the Arabic language into other languages and vice versa, Dr. Fahmy Tolba said: “The automatic translations of other languages have reached very high levels, and there are applications for translating the Arabic language on global search engines and others, but they are incomplete translations. It needs concerted Arab efforts to accomplish it. “

How do artificial intelligence deal with the Arabic text in its various contexts, where one word tolerates several different meanings?
Artificial intelligence has made remarkable progress in the ability of systems to understand and apply linguistic rules in a way that can be analyzed in depth in depth, whether those related to meanings or grammatical contexts.
Today, the spoken speech in Arabic can be converted into a written text through its digital, and vice versa, where artificial intelligence can be recorded through the sound recorded written text.
The linguistic context of the words represents an additional challenge, as the one word in the Arabic language may carry different meanings based on the context in which it is mentioned, and it is not understood for its reality except through its position in the sentence and through its formation. Artificial intelligence has made progress in the ability of systems to understand and apply these rules, which allows analysis of Arabic texts and extract accurate meanings through them.
In order to reach results that enhance the position of the Arabic language, artificial intelligence systems must be able to understand texts within multiple contexts, and intelligently analyze the text to conclude the optimal meaning, through a full database that includes all the roots and elements of the Arabic language, with the ability to form the text automatically to understand it properly, other than other languages that do not depend on formation.
Through artificial intelligence applications, we were able to support deaf and dumb in Arabic, by converting the reference to written words understood, or vice versa by converting speech into a sign.
On the site of the complex, artificial intelligence applications were used to teach and learn Arabic for non -native speakers, and also for those speaking them in learning other languages.
Through the computer, the learner can transform the speech in a way that absorbs and interacts with it, and we have reached the development of programs and applications to learn the correct pronunciation of the Holy Quran, correcting the reader’s mistakes and training it on the correct pronunciation.
Thus, we see that the areas of application of artificial intelligence in the Arabic language are very many, but they need full support from educational institutions and strong support from the state.

But what has added artificial intelligence to serve the Arabic language users through the services provided by the Arabic Language Academy in Cairo?
For more than 90 years, the Arabic Language Academy has been in the service of the Arabic language, and we found that there are efforts, effects and ideas that were not used, and it became a prominent in the warehouses and drawers and is not used, as the Arabic Language Academy in Cairo issued 220 thousand new linguistic term and new The terms issued by the complex are more than 250 thousand terms in various sciences.
All this scientific wealth of terms, references, lectures, and sessions held by the complex for 90 years is now digital and raised on the Internet and will be used by users all over the world through the linguistic complex site and its outputs.
Through the site of the Arabic Language Academy in Cairo, the street verafts can see a huge amount of terms in various sciences and find out the knowledge of any word and its derivatives and its translation of different images through its sound grammatical and morphological formation, and we were able to dig the documents by converting the content into spoken words through the design of sites using artificial intelligence with the help of a selected elite of technicians, and we finished completing 8 conferences, and on our way to finish the rest of the conferences And lectures and intellectual sessions.
He pointed to the importance of using artificial intelligence techniques to understand and analyze Arabic manuscripts, and through these technologies valuable and useful information can be extracted from these manuscripts in a fast and effective way, as artificial intelligence applications in this framework provide “optical conversion” technology (OCR), for converting paper copies of Arabic manuscripts to digital copies that are analyzed automatically, in addition to that that artificial intelligence techniques are the techniques of artificial intelligence techniques It is used to understand texts and linguistic analysis of Arabic manuscripts, and this helps in understanding the meanings of texts and analyzing them more accurately and detailed.
