Abstract

Urdu autobiography is an important genre of Urdu literature in which an individual gives literary expression to his personal life, experiences, feelings, observations and memories. In the modern era, artificial intelligence has created new possibilities for literary creation, understanding, editing, analysis and communication of text, due to which Urdu autobiography has also become an important subject of study in the new context of technology. With the help of artificial intelligence, the creative, aesthetic and artistic aspects of autobiography can be systematically and comparatively analyzed. Through AI, it is possible to identify themes, characters, memories, style, symbols, metaphorical systems, emotional states and narrative techniques in autobiographies, while the linguistic and stylistic differences of different autobiographies can also be studied comparatively. Furthermore, artificial intelligence can be helpful in text editing, spelling and language accuracy, digital archiving, audio-visual composition and reaching a new generation of autobiographies. However, the question of how the use of AI affects the creative uniqueness of the author, the authenticity of human experience, the depth of emotions and literary aesthetics is also important. Therefore, it is important that artificial intelligence is not considered a substitute for human creative consciousness, but rather a supporting technical and research tool. This study makes it clear that a balanced combination of human experience and modern technology can give new dimensions to the study and creative possibilities of Urdu autobiography
