Abstract

Purpose: Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a pivotal role in shaping social-ecological value, offering both opportunities and challenges in its application. Originating in the mid-20th century, AI has evolved significantly, finding widespread adoption across various sectors such as healthcare, finance, and environmental science. While AI holds promise in enhancing ecological monitoring, conservation efforts, and economic growth, it also presents risks such as job displacement, income inequality, and environmental degradation. Methodology: To navigate these complexities, a holistic systematic review approach anchored on ecological modernisation theory is crucial, emphasising ethical considerations, regulatory frameworks, and sustainability principles. Findings: Investment in education and workforce development is essential to equip individuals with the necessary skills for an AI-driven future. Collaboration between stakeholders, including governments, businesses, and civil society organisations, is paramount to address emerging challenges and promote responsible AI development and deployment. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: By embracing innovation while safeguarding human welfare and environmental integrity, society can harness the transformative potential of AI to create a more equitable, resilient, and sustainable future.
