Abstract

This Systematic Literature Review (SLR) explores research trends on the ethics of generative AI use and how ethical issues are discussed within it, mapping geographical distribution and examining AI epistemic governance. This systematic literature review employs the PRISMA method, with a literature search conducted through the Scopus database, filtered based on keywords related to generative AI Ethics in Quartiles Q1 and Q2 and limited to the period 2020–2026, resulting in 39 articles for further analysis in this SLR. The research trend has continuously increased from year to year, and 2025 became the year with the highest number of studies addressing the ethics of generative AI use. This indicates a strengthening academic attention to ethical and epistemic issues in AI. The literature is dominated by themes of ethical concerns in the use of generative AI, such as bias, data privacy, transparency, accountability, misinformation, academic integrity, and cognitive dependence on generative AI. This study also finds that generative AI is most frequently positioned as a knowledge generator, while the combination of training data bias and cultural bias constitutes the most dominant epistemic issue. In the dimension of epistemic dependency, human dependence on AI is the most frequently discussed theme. This demonstrates growing concerns regarding the weakening of human autonomy, control, and cognitive capacity. From the perspective of authoritative actors, the scientific community occupies the strongest position, while multi-stakeholder governance emerges as the most widely supported governance model. These findings affirm that AI governance is understood as a complex issue that cannot be resolved by a single actor, but rather requires collaboration.

Abstract

This study examines how power, resistance, and cultural hegemony are represented in Nadeem Aslam’s The Golden Legend, with particular attention to the discursive construction of religious minority identity, gendered vulnerability, and ideological belonging in a postcolonial society. The study responds to the need for a more integrated reading of the novel, since previous scholarship has generally examined religious intolerance, minority representation, gendered subjectivity, nationalism, or Foucauldian surveillance as relatively separate concerns. Using a qualitative, interpretive, and non-empirical textual approach, the study applies Foucault’s concepts of disciplinary power, subjectification, discourse, and resistance, complemented by Gramsci’s theory of cultural hegemony. The analysis was conducted through close reading, deductive thematic coding, and critical discourse interpretation of selected narrative passages, character interactions, and representations of institutional authority. The findings show that power in the novel operates through religious authority, military pressure, patriarchal norms, communal surveillance, legal fear, and ideological consent. Marginalized characters internalize fear through silence, concealment, and self-regulation, yet they also resist through moral defiance, ethical refusal, compassion, memory, and identity reconstruction. The study concludes that The Golden Legend is not merely a narrative of oppression but a literary representation of how language, ideology, and identity become central sites where domination is produced, normalized, contested, and transformed. This study contributes an integrated Foucauldian-Gramscian framework for analyzing discourse, power, and resistance in postcolonial literary texts.

Abstract

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed music production from a specialist studio practice into a prompt-based, platform-mediated activity in which songs, lyrics, voices, and genre markers can be produced almost instantly. This article repositions the debate about AI music within the intersection of language, technology, and social media by examining folk and rock music as communicative traditions rather than merely sonic products. Using a qualitative critical-hermeneutic design, the study analyzes selected folk, rock, and protest songs together with scholarship on text-to-music generation, platformization, digital authenticity, copyright, and embodied creativity. The analysis shows that AI music is not only a technological issue but also a linguistic and communicative one: prompts translate human intention into machine output, lyrics encode social memory, synthetic voices simulate identity, and streaming/social-media platforms recode authenticity through visibility metrics and algorithmic circulation. Four findings are developed: AI simulates stylistic language without situated experience; folk and rock operate as traditions of memory, resistance, and identity; social media transforms musical authenticity into a platform performance; and ethical AI music requires human-centered design, consent-based training, provenance labeling, and critical digital literacy. The article contributes a human-first framework for studying AI-generated music as a language-technology-social media phenomenon while preserving the humanities dimensions of agency, voice, embodiment, and cultural memory.

Abstract

This study examines muhadaroh as pesantren-based oral da'wah communication training for developing students' public speaking, religious language use, and digital media readiness. Although practiced in a face-to-face setting, muhadaroh is relevant to the intersection of language, communication, and digital da'wah because students must construct Islamic messages ethically and contextually for physical and mediated audiences. This qualitative descriptive study with a phenomenological orientation was conducted at Mafatihul Huda Islamic Boarding School, West Tanjung Jabung Barat. Data were gathered through observation, semi-structured interviews with the pesantren head, instructor, and participating students, and documentation, then analyzed through reduction, thematic display, conclusion drawing, and triangulation. Findings show that muhadaroh is implemented through MC practice, Qur'anic recitation, sholawat, berzanji or nadzom, speech delivery, evaluation, and closing prayer. The activity strengthens speech organization, vocal delivery, confidence, audience awareness, Islamic message construction, and communicative identity. Its implementation is supported by mentoring, regulation, and a conducive environment, but constrained by low interest, limited audio facilities, anxiety, and timing. The study contributes a contextual model for linking pesantren oral communication pedagogy with future digital da'wah literacy.
