Abstract

Today, one of the most significant contemporary topics is artificial intelligence (AI). AI is a branch of computer science that simulates human intelligence, aiming to create intelligent machines capable of performing tasks that require human-like cognitive abilities. AI has entered and influenced various fields, including jurisprudence and inference. This article employs a descriptive-analytical method and utilizes library resources to analyze the capabilities of AI in accelerating the inference process and examines its various applications. Initially, the study analyzes the impacts of AI on reporting outcomes and altering foundational principles and jurisprudential tenets. It then investigates the role of this technology in preventing comparative errors and establishing a balance between technology and jurisprudence. The discussion also encompasses a comprehensive and qualitative perspective on jurisprudential sources, correcting the confusion between method and content, and identifying logical gaps in the process of inferring religious rulings through AI. Various methods and techniques for achieving these objectives are mentioned, including expert systems, natural language processing, machine learning, neural networks, and deep learning. The research findings indicate that utilizing AI can expedite and facilitate the inference process, enhancing accuracy and speed in this domain.
