  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
From the Internet of Things to the Internet of Ideas: The Role of Artificial Intelligence (EAMMIS 2022)

Abstract

The current study discusses artificial intelligence as one of the most important outcomes of the modern technological revolution, as it has multiple uses in all areas of security, economics, military and civil matters. According to the literature, research neglects to review studies regarding the detection of crimes in the security field. Nevertheless, Artificial intelligence enables police agencies to use resources effectively and achieve societal security and the speed of crime detection in the UAE. Furthermore, the synthesis of the research problems, research methods, and findings of the surveyed studies will assist the scholars in pursuing their future studies. Further discussions and implications are also presented in the study.
