Abstract

Facing intertwined challenges like poverty, inequality, and climate change, humanity seeks solutions in technology. This chapter delves into AI's role in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), balancing potential and risks. AI's strengths in data analysis, trend prediction, and resource optimisation are evident. It aids SDGs like zero hunger, forecasting crop yields for SDG 2, and anticipating climate events for SDG 13. It also enhances healthcare and education for SDGs 4 and 10. Yet, AI poses risks. Data bias reinforces inequalities (SDG 5), automation threatens jobs (SDG 1), and transparency issues affect trust (SDG 16). To unlock AI's potential, responsible deployment is vital, prioritising human-centred approaches. Addressing limitations, leveraging strengths, and ethical considerations can make AI a force for good. This chapter calls for further research on specific AI applications for each SDG, social and environmental impacts, and ethical frameworks.
