This study aims to address debate in previous studies on whether AI has a positive or negative effect carbon emission reduction. We used quantile regression and PSTR models the diverse impacts of emissions 66 countries from 1993–2019. There were three main findings this paper. First, impact varies across countries, its reduction is mainly found high-carbon high-income countries. Second, industrial structure environment different affects role reduction, with marginal limiting decreasing rise secondary structures. Third, based their demographic The increases places older populations. offers unique insight into heterogeneous CO2 emissions. Our analysis confirms importance structures promoting provide effective policy recommendations for economic development environmental governance.

Abstract This study examines the multifaceted impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on environmental sustainability, specifically targeting ecological footprints, carbon emissions, and energy transitions. Utilizing panel data from 67 countries, we employ System Generalized Method Moments (SYS-GMM) Dynamic Panel Threshold Models (DPTM) to analyze complex interactions between AI development key metrics. The estimated coefficients benchmark model show that significantly reduces footprints emissions while promoting transitions, with most substantial observed in followed by footprint reduction reduction. Nonlinear analysis indicates several insights: (i) a higher proportion industrial sector diminishes inhibitory effect but enhances its positive transitions; (ii) increased trade openness amplifies AI’s ability reduce promote (iii) benefits are more pronounced at levels development, enhancing (iv) as transition process deepens, effectiveness reducing increases, role further transitions decreases. enriches existing literature providing nuanced understanding offers robust scientific foundation for global policymakers develop sustainable management frameworks.

Introduction Promoting the development of digital technology is an important step in meeting challenge global climate change and achieving carbon peaking neutrality goals. Methods Based on panel data Chinese cities from 2006 to 2020, this paper used econometrics investigate impact mechanism emissions. Results The results showed that can significantly reduce emission intensity improve efficiency. These remained robust after changing estimation method, adding policy omission variables, replacing core solving endogeneity problem. Digital indirectly emissions by promoting green technological innovation reducing energy intensity, it plays a significant role reduction practices trading policies comprehensive national big pilot zones. replicability, non-exclusivity, high mobility help accelerate spread knowledge information between different cities, which leads spillover effect reductions. Our unconditional quantile regression model technology’s continuously decreases with increases dioxide Discussion provide evidence for potential use goal neutrality, great significance high-quality transformation economy society.

As the dyad of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) and innovation have gained greater attention from researchers, practitioners policy makers, integration sustainability sustainable development paradigms to this become fundamental sustain businesses’ competitive advantage. A variety I4.0 based innovations with several implications exists in literature, but they largely address independent distinct knowledge areas, which yields an opportunity explore interconnections I4.0-innovation-sustainability nexus. Therefore, research performs a systematic literature review synthesize nexus by investigating how combination technologies different types innovations, could contribute thereby providing implications. Our portfolio derived three databases analyzed 58 journal articles that addressed simultaneous links I4.0-innovation-sustainability. The primary findings show results various including process, product, business model, supply chain, organizational, open, marketing advance triple bottom line (TBL) sustainability, circular economy (CE), models (SBMs) achievement goals (SDGs). While most studies focus on model TBL CE implications, more is required significant overlooked areas such as SDGs.
