Malaysia's Zetrix Launches Sharia-Compliant AI Chatbot, NurAI
A Malaysian tech company created NurAI, a special AI chatbot for Muslim users.
It's like a helpful digital friend that speaks multiple languages and gives advice based on Islamic rules called Sharia.
The chatbot is built using AI technology from China, and it will offer guidance on everything from food choices to finances.
In the future, it might also help with court tasks.
You can use it for free, but there are paid options for more personalized help.
This is different from other chatbots like ChatGPT because NurAI is specifically designed to be culturally and religiously sensitive, giving recommendations that fit with Islamic values.
Malaysian company Zetrix launched NurAI, an AI chatbot for Muslim users.
