arXiv:2502. 20016v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sustainability encompasses three key facets: economic, environmental, and social.
arXiv:2606. 09006v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Both digital economy and digital technology researchers increasingly recognize the need to better address the role that artificial intelligence (AI) plays in shaping the evolution of the environmental, social and governance aspects of development.
arXiv:2608. 09998v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have become powerful tools for supporting and automating complex human tasks.
arXiv:2507. 17012v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reducing the rapidly growing environmental impact of the computing industry requires assessing the emissions of electronics at scale.
arXiv:2603. 05710v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: AI development's current trajectory risks automating and amplifying the North-South divide in the global climate information system.
arXiv:2602. 00056v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large-scale data has fuelled the success of frontier artificial intelligence (AI) models over the past decade.
arXiv:2505. 24528v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Foundation Models (FMs) are large-scale, pre-trained artificial intelligence (AI) systems that have revolutionized natural language processing and computer vision, and are now advancing geospatial analysis and Earth Observation (EO).
arXiv:2606. 13704v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This position paper argues that contemporary AI paradigms are insufficient for supporting complex global goals and introduces Planet-Centered AI (PCAI) as a design philosophy and research agenda that reorients AI toward planetary-scale socio-ecological systems and their long-term trajectories.
arXiv:2602. 19789v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This position paper argues that the machine learning community must move from preaching to practising data frugality for responsible artificial intelligence (AI) development.
arXiv:2602. 19718v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The rapid adoption of Generative AI (GenAI) in the software development life cycle (SDLC) increases computational demand, which can raise the carbon footprint of development activities.
arXiv:2606. 30656v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to be transformative for development, but Africa is currently facing a fragmented and challenging "AI divide".
arXiv:2512. 03077v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The accelerated development, deployment and adoption of artificial intelligence systems has been fuelled by the increasing presence of big tech in the AI field.
arXiv:2608. 14359v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The sustainability constraints of FLaaS consumers pose significant challenges to maintaining carbon-feasible federated training in FLaaS environments.
