SDG 09: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
                 These  are  vital  forces  in  the  economic  growth  and  development  of  any
                 country. The SDG promotes sustainable industries, investment in scientific
                 research and innovation which will lead to sustainable development. AI can
                 work as a catalyst in achieving this agenda.





                                       SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities
                                       This goal  aims  to  ensure  equal  opportunities  and  end  discrimination  by
                                       eliminating  discriminatory  laws,  policies  and practices.  AI may  help in
                                       improving industrial growth thereby improving the global financial market
                                       and institutions.



                 SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities

                 This goal aims to provide safe and affordable housing facilities to all. It also
                 advocates green and culturally inspiring conditions for all. Technologies like
                 AI in smart cities help the cities to utilise current assets more effectively,
                 allot resources more efficiently and understand how data can be shared
                 and managed across the whole system.



                                       SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
                                       This aims to use products and services in a manner that is socially beneficial,
                                       economically feasible and environment friendly during their whole life cycle.
                                       AI can help in eliminating waste, improving farming techniques and using
                                       resources  efficiently  which in turn will  improve  responsible  consumption
                                       and production.


                 SDG 13: Climate Action

                 This goal aims to reduce global warming, address climate related hazards
                 in all countries implement national policies and build knowledge and
                 capacities to meet climate change. AI for climate action has the potential
                 to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by up to 4 percent. By using AI
                 and data from NASA, researchers are able to identify patterns and monitor
                 changes in land surfaces such as decreasing sea areas, ice cap surfaces, etc.
                 This would help in determining future risks. AI can also be used to monitor

                 pollution.

                     More than 4 billion people still do not have access to the Internet, and 90 percent
                     are from the developing part of the world.                                          FACT
