Abstract
Since 2015, 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have been understood as more promising blueprints for a peaceful, prosperous, and sustainable future [1] which are formulated to seek a framework to address global challenging issues such as poverty, inequality, and pollution. Indeed, engineers and scientists have an obvious mandate for their growing role in solving these SDGs [2] where extensive research on various solutions to these challenges can be found from the perspective of engineering practice and social science [3]. Whilst there is existing research on AI-enabled techniques for tackling SDGs [4], [5], there has been less research on how generative AI can promote communities to live in a more sustainable way.
