SDG 01: No Poverty
Eradicating extreme poverty and reducing poverty by at least by 50% is
the target to achieve. Worldwide, approximately 17.2 percent of people are
struggling to fulfil the most basic needs like health, education and access to
clean water and sanitation. AI can help in improving the farming land,
agriculture, quality of products, etc. AI can also help with aid distribution in
poor and war-torn areas, or where natural disasters have caused heavy
destruction.
SDG 02: Zero Hunger
This goal aims to end hunger issues by 2030 and ensure access to nutritious
food for all children. AI can help in reaching out to the goal by tracking food
waste, finding ways to grow yields, identifying diseases and pest outbreaks,
analysing means to reduce population, etc.
SDG 03: Good Health and Well-Being
This goal focusses on the well-being and good health for all. It aims to end
epidemics like Cholera, Tuberculosis, Malaria and other communicable
diseases. AI can help in achieving this goal by increasing the ability of
healthcare professionals to analyse huge data sets, providing better
feedback and finding accurately the cause of diseases to discover the cure.
Wearable healthcare technology also uses AI to serve the patients and
healthcare workers.
SDG 04: Quality Education
Education is one of the most basic public services. It enables people to
develop all of their attributes and skills to achieve their potential as human
beings and members of society. Quality education provides the foundation
for equity in society and helps reach gender equality. AI in education can
be used to achieve quality education goals by developing smart content,
providing personalised guidance, round the clock assistance, virtual
learning environment and creating more secured online exams.
SDG 05: Gender Equality
For sustainable development, it's necessary that we end all forms of
discrimination against women. This is a basic human right. We need to
provide equal access to resources, opportunities, power and property to
women in the world. AI powered apps can be used by employers to use
gender sensitive language for their recruitment-drive. AI can analyse a huge
amount of data to find the area where more gender specific issues exist.
