MBA 636. Artificial Intelligence for Sustainable Development Goals.3 Credits.
This course developed from the Oxford University Initiative AIxSDG to urge AI to deliver socially beneficial outcomes. The goal of the Initiative was to advance knowledge of AI in combination with the United Nations (UN) 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to identify global challenges that AI could help tackle and to develop a strategic guide for decision-makers based on empirical evidence. The objective of this course is to develop a mindset to use AI to positively impact individuals, societies, and the environment. This concept is the basis for AI for social good (AI4SG). Stakeholders, e.g., industry and governments, with various areas of interest are currently promoting ethical requirements for AI the same as they would for AI's human counterparts. Since the SDGs incorporate economic, social, and environmental goals for social good, they are globally recognized as a benchmark for evaluation of positive social impact. In this course we will delve into various aspects of AI and its potential to impact social good and the processes that may need to be implemented to deliver AI4SG and AI4SDGs.
