AraDetox is a newly released multi-dialect Arabic detoxification dataset containing 10,500 harmful social‑media posts and 84,000 detoxified rewrites generated by GPT‑5 and Gemini 2.5 Flash across Modern Standard Arabic, Gulf, Levantine, and Egyptian Arabic. Human evaluation and automatic analyses confirm that the rewrites effectively remove harmful language while preserving meaning, lexical change, and dialectal style. The dataset is publicly available to support future research in Arabic detoxification, safe text generation, and multi‑dialect NLP.

The paper surveys the state of Explainable AI (XAI) in Arabic NLP, highlighting three gaps: a method gap where Arabic XAI relies mainly on limited post‑hoc techniques; a task gap with most work focused on classification tasks and little on generation, retrieval, or dialogue; and a linguistic gap where explanations rarely address Arabic‑specific phenomena such as morphology, dialects, and diglossia. It proposes a taxonomy of tasks, methods, linguistic units, and evaluation practices, and outlines a research agenda for linguistically grounded Arabic XAI.
