AI has emerged as a transformative influence with the capacity to reshape both our society and industries. AI devices can be employed for a number of uses (wildlife conservation, improved agriculture, healthcare diagnostics, disaster response and fighting climate-related wildfires, education, enhanced cybersecurity). AI has been integrated in education programs at various levels, to help students for language learning and personalized learning experiences, ensuring that no one is left behind. In remote and underserved areas, AI-driven learning platforms enable access to quality education. AI has also been recently employed to help people do common tasks faster, especially for work. One of ‘the greatest advantages of AI is its ability to help people with disabilities.’ AI opens new pathways for entrepreneurship by providing tools for small businesses to compete with larger corporations. Equitable and social issues arise with AI, as it can exacerbate inequalities if not deployed with care. One of the primary social issues is the risk of job displacement by AI.
