Pandit Sant Ram Government College Baijnath, Kangra H.P. 2Research Scholar, Department of Computer Science Himachal Pradesh University Shimla -------------------------------------------------------------------------***------------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract- In order to solve the complicated problems that society faces, artificial intelligence (AI) integration into sustainable
development techniques is becoming more and more important. This study examines the diverse applications of AI in sustainable development, covering everything from waste management and catastrophe response to energy optimization and sustainable agriculture. This study clarifies the potential of AI to enhance resource efficiency, lower waste, and support environmentally friendly practices across a range of industries by a thorough analysis of the literature and research that has already been done. It also emphasizes how artificial intelligence (AI) may improve decision making and help build more resilient and sustainable urban landscapes. Stakeholders may solve societal injustices, slow down environmental deterioration, and take on global issues like biodiversity loss and climate change by utilizing AI technologies. The importance of interdisciplinary cooperation and coordinated efforts to fully utilize artificial intelligence (AI)'s revolutionary potential in achieving global sustainable development goals is emphasized in this study.
Key Words: Artificial intelligence, Sustainable Development, environment, climate modeling, disaster management. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Sustainable Development The idea of sustainable development [6] entails providing for current needs without sacrificing the capacity of future generations to provide for themselves. The development process entails striking a balance among the economic, environmental, and social dimensions. Concerns regarding the detrimental effects of economic growth and development on the environment, natural resources, and social equity gave rise to the idea of sustainable development. The goal is to support development that is sustainable in terms of the environment, social justice, and economy. In order to guarantee that resources are used prudently and that the negative effects on the environment, society, and economy are kept to a minimum, sustainable development places a strong emphasis on long-term planning and management. It also highlights how important it is to take an integrated approach to solving problems like poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation. Countries and communities all over the world collaborate to promote sustainable practices and solve global issues including resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and climate change. Sustainable development is frequently considered as a global responsibility. 1.2. Artificial Intelligence In the world of technology, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a buzzword, and its uses are spreading across a range of sectors, including sustainable development. The term artificial intelligence (AI) describes the emulation of human intellect in computers that have been designed to think, learn, and carry out operations that ordinarily call for human intelligence. Artificial intelligence (AI) systems analyze and understand complicated data, spot patterns, and make decisions based on that knowledge by using statistical models and algorithms.
