Fatima Ali Al-Khamisi, Layan Thunayyan, Al- Thunayyan, Shema Majed Al-Mtairi, Nouf Saad Alharbi . The Potential of Artificial Intelligence in Reshaping Community Work in Saudi Arabia: A Comparative Analysis. International Journal of Computer Applications. 187, 31 ( Aug 2025), 36-43. DOI=10.5120/ijca2025925544
This comparative study explores how artificial intelligence (AI) can transform community work in Saudi Arabia. Based on an evaluation of the status of community services—healthcare, care for the elderly, disabled, and children—the research identifies areas where AI can make a significant difference in efficiency, effectiveness, and accessibility. The study also examines the expected benefits and drawbacks of adopting AI in such sectors, including key issues such as ethical concerns, privacy of data, and social opposition to technological change. Based on comparative methodology, relying on cross-national experiences of AI adoption under comparable conditions, the study guides how to avoid emerging challenges and maximize the role of AI under the Saudi conditions. Finally, the insights presented are hoped to inform a more strategic, evidence-led approach to AI adoption in the Kingdom's community services sector.
