Technology Trends To Watch In 2024 The Evolution Of Artificial Intelligence Part 4 - The Role of AI in Sustainable Areas
■ The Role of AI in Sustainable Areas
As the days go by, the role of AI in various fields where artificial intelligence (AI) can be used continuously is becoming very important.
Global environmental issues, optimization of energy efficiency, improvement of waste management processes, etc...
In order to enable sustainable development, rather than single-use or short-term, in many areas, it is now necessary to aim to use artificial intelligence to harmoniously develop environmental protection, economic growth and social inclusion.
The unprecedented advancement of "AI technology" is becoming a very useful tool for supporting these goals, and let's see what role "AI" plays in sustainable fields.
① Environmental protection
Using AI to collect, analyze, and provide insights will greatly help protect the environment through environmental monitoring. It analyzes satellite images and sensor data to detect environmental changes, which can prevent and respond to wildfires, floods, and other natural disasters.
It can also monitor changes in ecosystems, track populations of endangered species, and detect habitat destruction early.
In addition, it plays a critical role in predicting the impact of climate change by analyzing climate data. For example, AI models the impact under different climate scenarios to help policymakers and businesses develop more effective response strategies.
② Resource Management and Energy Efficiency
Applying AI to resource management enables very efficient management.
For example, water resource management can manage water resources more efficiently by predicting water demand, optimizing water supply, and detecting leaks, and recycling resources can automate waste classification and recycling processes to improve the efficiency of waste disposal and increase recycling rates.
There is a field where artificial intelligence will be used very importantly today and in the future, and that is the "energy industry."
The application of AI in the energy sector optimizes energy consumption, enables efficient integration of renewable energy resources. For example, optimizes the output of solar and wind power generation, and improves the management of the power grid through energy demand forecasting.
This will increase the efficiency of energy use and contribute to reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
③ sustainable agriculture
The use of AI in agriculture enables precise agriculture.
By analyzing crop growth patterns, soil conditions, and climate data, the use of water and fertilizer is optimized, agricultural water is saved, and yields are maximized.
This saves resources, reduces the environmental burden, while greatly helping to increase the productivity of older farmers in rural agricultural sites, where the population of the already young has fled.
④ Smart Cities and Transportation Systems
AI is used to optimize city energy consumption and improve transportation systems.
"Smart Grid," a power distribution infrastructure system that enables two-way communication between utility providers and customers, efficiently manages energy use, improves traffic flow in cities and reduces emissions through a real-time traffic management system.
⑤ Improving health and welfare and economic sustainability
AI is utilized in the health care sector for early diagnosis of diseases, optimization of treatment plans, and efficient allocation of medical resources, which is an essential factor in maintaining a healthy life and contributes to the improvement of the welfare of society as a whole.
AI is also helping businesses use resources efficiently, reduce operating costs, and create new business opportunities.
This proves that the sustainable field of AI is also very economically efficient.
This role of AI in the sustainable field mentioned above is,
It helps stakeholders in each field make more informed decisions and contributes to achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs). However, since the use of AI involves issues such as data quality, technology accessibility, and ethical considerations, we believe that appropriate regulation and policy support are essential.
