Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative mechanism for expanding educational access, enhancing digital empowerment, and fostering entrepreneurial engagement among marginalized populations. This study investigates the specific role of AI technologies—such as generative AI tools, AI-powered language translation applications, adaptive learning platforms, and automated chatbots—in supporting Afghan women’s education and socio-economic participation. Employing a quantitative descriptive research design, data were collected from 150 female students across four faculties (Computer Science, Business Administration, Education, and Sharia & Law) at Vision Online University. Results show that 77% of participants perceive AI as significantly improving learning opportunities for women, particularly through personalized learning support and language-based assistance. Additionally, 69% reported that AI tools enhanced their digital skills, while 62% indicated that AI applications increased their interest in online business creation and entrepreneurial activities. Despite these benefits, respondents identified major barriers including limited access to digital devices (58%), unstable internet connectivity (64%), and low digital literacy (52%). The findings reveal AI’s multidimensional impact in strengthening knowledge, autonomy, and economic participation for Afghan women. The study underscores the need for inclusive digital infrastructure and culturally sensitive implementation strategies to fully leverage AI as a sustainable driver of gender equality and socio-economic development in Afghanistan.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool with the potential to advance education, empowerment, and entrepreneurship for marginalized populations. This study examines the role of AI technologies in enhancing educational access, social empowerment, and entrepreneurial opportunities for Afghan women, who have historically faced sociopolitical and cultural constraints. Using a quantitative descriptive research design, data were collected from 150 students across four faculties at Vision Online University. Findings reveal that the majority of participants are at least somewhat familiar with AI technologies, with 77% perceiving AI as significantly improving learning opportunities for women. AI is recognized not only as a facilitator of personalized education and digital skills acquisition but also as an enabler of financial independence and entrepreneurial engagement. Participants identified key barriers, including limited access to devices and the internet, low digital literacy, and societal restrictions, which impede effective adoption. The study highlights AI’s multidimensional impact in fostering knowledge, autonomy, and economic participation, while emphasizing the need for inclusive implementation strategies. By addressing infrastructural and cultural challenges, AI can serve as a sustainable mechanism for promoting gender equality, social inclusion, and economic development in Afghanistan. These insights underscore the potential of AI to empower Afghan women as active contributors to national progress.
