The role of artificial intelligence in developing the accounting system in Jordanian Islamic banks

Abstract

The current study aims to determine the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in developing the accounting system (AS) in Jordanian Islamic banks. Currently, Islamic banks in Jordan are included in the research population. Using a quantitative research approach, 128 workers of Islamic banks in Jordan were chosen as a sample for this study. The study used a survey questionnaire instrument that was created based on past relevant literature and studies to collect the required data. The results indicated that there is an influence of AI (big data, intelligent agents, expert systems and automation processes) on the development of the AS in Jordanian Islamic banks. Accordingly, the study recommends that to improve AS tasks and reduce associated costs, accountants and accounting companies should always increase their understanding of artificial intelligence.
