An examination of artificial intelligence's significance in reaching the United Nations' sustainable development goals

This paper assesses the role of AI as one of the very likely technologies that can best help in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations (SDG's). AI stands behind revolutionary upgrades in the fields of healthcare, agriculture, education, and ecology. AI relies on larger sets of data and uses the process of machine learning to accomplish diverse objectives, like improving healthcare, equalizing education opportunities, and even introducing sustainable agriculture. Lastly, AI is used to address climate change. AI can open many opportunities, but at the same time, they can pose questions like ethical problems, the effects on society, and the issue that they may even aggravate. This paper proposes that the temporary adoption of stringent ethical laws and collaboration among experts in AI research are vital to ensuring that AI is not abused and is used for the benefit of society. We underscore the significance of equality and inclusivity in developing AI, which, on a global level, both benefits and improves the lives and welfare of all people.

Abstract

This paper assesses the role of AI as one of the very likely technologies that can best help in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations (SDG's). AI stands behind revolutionary upgrades in the fields of healthcare, agriculture, education, and ecology. AI relies on larger sets of data and uses the process of machine learning to accomplish diverse objectives, like improving healthcare, equalizing education opportunities, and even introducing sustainable agriculture. Lastly, AI is used to address climate change. AI can open many opportunities, but at the same time, they can pose questions like ethical problems, the effects on society, and the issue that they may even aggravate. This paper proposes that the temporary adoption of stringent ethical laws and collaboration among experts in AI research are vital to ensuring that AI is not abused and is used for the benefit of society. We underscore the significance of equality and inclusivity in developing AI, which, on a global level, both benefits and improves the lives and welfare of all people.
