ABSTRACT
Artificial intelligence is starting to gain a strong position in various industries, and it can influence issues such as climate and environmental change. Artificial intelligence can enable a more comprehensive view on systemic issues, and can interpret and analyze data at a much faster pace than previous methods, benefitting individual companies and entire industries. With its ever-growing presence, artificial intelligence can be positioned as one aspect of the solution to sustainability, and can contribute to the improvements aimed at environmental, social, and governmental change. Environmental challenges are the primary sustainability branch that can be clearly influenced by the development of artificial intelligence. Digital Crust can be map out scenarios of different environmental factors influencing each other with machine learning, showing predictions of the possibilities of climate change. One major ongoing project is the EarthCube, which uses machine learning to construct a 3-D living and adaptable model of Earth.
