Dear All,
We invite you to submit your research to the following mini-track
at AMCIS 2023:
Artificial Intelligence for Sustainability
Call for Papers
Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS)
2023
<https://amcis2023.aisconferences.org/>
Panama City, August 10-12, 2023
Mini track: Artificial Intelligence for Sustainability
Track: Green IS and Sustainability (SIG Green)
The catastrophic impacts of climate change on biodiversity,
ecosystems and human lives have raised attention towards
environmental sustainability more than ever. The challenge of
sustainability is multi-dimensional, involves complex
interactions, and requires trade-offs between conflicting values
of multiple stakeholders. Artificial intelligence (AI) can offer
diverse solutions for mitigating adverse impacts of climate change
and adapting to new planetary conditions – from earlier and better
detection of climate risks to machine-based intelligence offering
powerful predictive capabilities to support decision making and
using immersive applications that help individuals reconnect with
the natural environment. This minitrack adopts a
socio-technical-ecological perspective to examine how AI can be
used to support environmental sustainability and respond to the
challenges of climate change. Research of all types is invited,
from conceptual work that develops theories around AI to empirical
investigations of the interplay between AI and
sustainability-related phenomenon and design work that develops
novel solutions and approaches.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Use of AI for sustainability to transform high-polluting
industries
• Implications of Industry 4.0 on environmental sustainability
• Applications of AI for sustainability in different sectors,
such as energy, transportation, agriculture, information
technology, smart cities, construction and others
• Design and use of AI to improve the organization’s
environmental footprint
• Theories integrating AI with payoffs for sustainability
• Factors affecting the success and failure of AI applications
for sustainability
• AI tools for measuring dimensions of environmental
sustainability, including environment-related Sustainable
Development Goals
• Development of sustainable products and services using AI
• Use of AI to encourage environmentally responsible behaviors
by individuals
• Application of responsible innovation processes to the
design and development of AI applications
• Conceptual models relating to the relationships between AI
applications and environmental sustainability
• AI governance and public policy considerations related to AI
with implications for sustainability
• Threats and risks associated with use of AI to address
sustainability concerns, such as algorithmic bias, explainability,
transparency and digital divide
• Ethical and social issues associated with the use of AI for
environmental sustainability
• Human centered AI for environmental sustainability
