Society<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The nine social Sustainable Development Goals are goal 1 (no poverty), goal 2 (zero hunger), goal 3 (good health and well-being), goal 4 (quality education), goal 5 (gender equality), goal 6 (clean water and sanitation), goal 7 (affordable and clean energy), goal 11 (sustainable cities and communities), and goal 16 (peace justice and strong institutions).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are 67 targets or 82% of all targets in this group that could potentially benefit from AI-based technologies. However, 31 social targets (38%) may be negatively influenced by\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px\">artificial intelligence<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The researchers found that artificial intelligence may act as an enabler for all the targets by supporting the provision of food, health, water, and energy services.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>2. Economy<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The five Sustainable Development Goals in the economy group are goal 8 (decent work and economic growth), goal 9 (industry innovation and infrastructure), goal 10 (reduced inequality), goal 12 (responsible production and consumption), and goal 17 (partnerships for the goals).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px;text-align: var(--text-align)\">Artificial intelligence<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0may have a positive impact on 42 targets or 70% of SDG targets in the economy group, while negatively impacting 20 targets or 33% of the targets in this group.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>3. Environment<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are three environmental Sustainable Development Goals, they are goal 13 (climate action), goal 14 (life below water), and goal 15 (life on land). AI could help with 25 environment targets or 93% of the targets in this category.\u00a0 However, 8 targets may be negatively impacted by artificial intelligence.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It can analyze large-scale interconnected databases to develop joint actions that preserve the environment.

Both are important uses of it that are indispensable for achieving the SDGs.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>1. The Capability of Data Analysis<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In order to achieve the SDGs, it is necessary to collect and analyze a lot of information and data.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In particular, it is good at quickly processing and analyzing huge amounts of data to find useful information.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The strength of\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px\">artificial intelligence<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0is that it can propose means to solve the issues faced by each of the SDGs based on the results obtained from data analysis.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By using our data analysis capabilities to achieve the SDGs, we can solve a variety of problems. For example, in order to solve issues related to poverty (goal 1) and health (goal 3), it is necessary to accurately grasp the current living conditions and health data.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Obviously, the use of\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px\">artificial intelligence<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0makes it easier to aggregate and analyze relevant data, making it easier to formulate effective measures.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The same applies to targets related to climate change (goal 13) and nature conservation (goal 6, 14 and 15). For example, by collecting and analyzing environmental data such as the sky, forests, and oceans in real time, it is possible to accurately know the state of the environment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This makes it possible to observe abnormal weather events, over-deforestation, and overuse of water resources at an early stage.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Moreover, data analysis is also useful in the management of energy (goal 7). Specifically, it is possible to grasp the usage of energy and make proposals such as energy waste and effective supply methods.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>2. Expectations for AI-based Job Automation<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By harnessing the power of automation, routine tasks can be executed quickly and with high accuracy.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In other words, there is no need for humans to do tedious work, and it also leads to a significant reduction in work time.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition, the precision of the work makes it less likely that you will make mistakes like humans.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For example, in the areas of health (goal 3) and food supply goal 2 and 12), AI can automatically perform tasks such as health checkups, distribution of medicines, and harvesting crops.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It takes less time than it would do manually, so you can serve more people than ever before.<\/span><\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mcsolutions.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AI-in-harvesting.png\" alt=\"AI in harvesting\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Furthermore, in terms of goals related to cities (goal 11), with the help of\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px\">artificial intelligence<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, it will be possible to manage urban traffic and energy and dispose of waste more efficiently.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Singapore, AI is a function that can understand traffic conditions and better adjust the number of buses and trains.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">See more: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mcsolutions.vn\/ja\/singapores-rise-as-an-ai-hub\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Singapore\u2019s Rise as an AI Hub<\/span><\/a><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, education (goal 4) and technology diffusion (goal 9) are also important goals of the SDGs. It can also help improve the quality of education, such as automatically generating teaching materials and managing learning progress. Therefore, many people will have more opportunities to receive a quality education.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #339966\"><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Taken as a whole,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px\">artificial intelligence<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0can be a powerful tool for advancing sustainability.
