Multidisciplinary Movements in AI and Generative AI: Society, Business, Education

This book explores how AI and Generative AI (GenAI) are shaping contemporary societies. It examines the mechanisms through which they influence politics and governance, and sectors such as education and business, with a focus on their alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Leading experts provide a variety of complementary perspectives on the influence of AI in both public and private sectors. Chapters are organized into three thematic parts, investigating regulatory frameworks, the transformation of higher education and practical applications across industries, such as healthcare and agriculture, with detailed case studies bridging viewpoints from the Global North and South. The book further demonstrates how actionable insights, such as decentralization and Web3, technologies can create a roadmap for aligning AI with ethical principles and ensure equitable distribution of the benefits it bears.

Scholars and students of business, business ethics, education policy, disruptive technologies and AI will greatly benefit from this comprehensive book. It is also a crucial resource for practitioners and policymakers working in public policy, administration and management, as well as regulation and governance and general SDGs.
