Artificial Intelligence (AI), often a subject of fascination, speculation, and fear, is not inherently dangerous. It is, rather, a potent tool that can either enhance human potential or become a source of unintended harm, depending entirely on how it is wielded.
On 23 November 2021, the 194 member states of UNESCO adopted the recommendations on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence. The recommendation provided a basis for making AI systems work for the good of humanity, individuals, societies, the environment, and ecosystems and to prevent harm.
AI's ability to analyse vast datasets and identify patterns makes it a game-changer for promoting sustainable practices in IT.
