I hold a Ph.D. in Philosophy and Ethics of Artificial Intelligence from the University of Jordan.
My dissertation,
Issues in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Algorithms Compared with Human Intelligence:
A Philosophical and Ethical Approach
explored critical questions at the intersection of human cognition, machine learning, and ethical responsibility.
Currently, I teach at the King Abdullah II School for Information Technology, in the Computer Information Systems Department at the University of Jordan in Amman.
My academic and research interests lie primarily in the philosophy and ethics of Artificial Intelligence, with complementary work in computer vision, digitization, digital multimedia watermarking, and image processing. I am particularly interested in developing advanced techniques for watermarking and feature extraction, with a focus on enhancing image analysis, content protection, and the automation of processes such as defect detection and text recognition.
Throughout my academic career, I have contributed to a range of interdisciplinary research. I’ve published on topics such as responsible AI, digitization, signal and image processing, and the philosophy of technology. This includes co-authoring a book chapter on image processing and authoring a book on .NET Framework Visual Programming.
My work is rooted in a human-centered approach to technology, and is closely tied to my ongoing initiative, Tech with a human Heart ♥️. This project reflects my belief that technology—especially AI—should be developed and taught with an awareness of ethical responsibility, cultural identity, and human values.
Through my teaching and research, I aim to contribute meaningfully to the fields of cyber ethics, digital citizenship, theoretical AI, and multimedia security, supporting a more thoughtful and inclusive digital future.
