The results underscore the need for a multidisciplinary approach to match artificial intelligence innovations with sustainable development goals, guaranteeing not only efficiency but also inclusivity and long-term society impact with the more general objectives of sustainable development and responsible innovation.The results underline the need for a multidisciplinary approach to match artificial intelligence innovations with sustainable development goals, guaranteeing not only efficiency but also inclusivity and long-term society impact with the more general objectives of sustainable development and responsible innovation. The key themes emerged: democratisation of AI, ethical AI deployment, and alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The paper proposes actionable strategies to overcome barriers to adopting artificial intelligence in manufacturing, such as the need for internal data science expertise and ethical considerations, ultimately contributing to sustainable industry practices.
