Engaging with climate governance and AI for environmental resilience
I also followed the national Egyptian TV coverage of the Climate Change Summit (COP27), held in Egypt, through the official broadcast available on YouTube. This engagement reflects my commitment to understanding how climate governance debates intersect with digital transformation and the potential of ethical AI to support climate adaptation—in Africa, and North Africa specifically, where environmental vulnerabilities, water scarcity, and socio-economic inequalities require context-aware technological solutions. This reference demonstrates my broader awareness of how AI policy, climate resilience, and sustainable development are connected across the region.

Writing about the social impact of AI
In my Arabic-language article «بعد اختراع روبوت قادر على كتابة 4000 قصة... هل انتهى عصر الصحافة البشرية؟» published by ArabicPost, I analyzed how automated journalism and AI-generated news could transform media ecosystems in the Arab region—raising early awareness about algorithmic bias, job displacement, and the ethical use of AI in newsrooms. This article reflects my early commitment to communicating AI issues in Arabic so that public debate is not limited to English-language sources.
