Supporting people and the planet with AI

Artificial intelligence and analytics are transforming the way we do business. Year after year, leaders recognize AI as the most impactful technology for their enterprise. They’re using it for many applications, from chatbots that help people talk to machines and organizations to business intelligence solutions that support agile processes and informed decisions.

AI provides the deep insights enterprises need to target efficiency improvements, monitor progress against goals and innovate at pace and scale. These same capabilities are vital in helping them achieve a positive impact on the planet and its people.

We have two decades left to achieve the United Nations Paris Agreement goal of limiting global warming to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels. In the race to get there, companies are committing to ambitious targets for emissions reduction and sustainable operations.

But while big-picture goals are crucial to our planet’s future, the small steps needed to reach them are often less clear. AI will be the key to overcoming these challenges, enabling enterprises to harmonize their data, identify their strongest sustainability opportunities, define key performance indicators, and measure and report on their progress.

Sustainability is a journey that no enterprise, department or individual can travel alone. Shared ownership of sustainability goals across the organization will be essential to achieving that 1.5C goal. Just as necessary is sharing knowledge, insight and experience across the broader ecosystem to support and inspire others to make the most positive impact they can.

We bring these insights and experiences together in this issue of ai:sight with real-world examples showing how business leaders ensure their organizations deliver unique experiences and services while being a force for the good of people and the planet.
