The Proof is in the Pudding. Revealing the SDGs with Artificial Intelligence

Régis Marodon, Jean-Baptiste Jacouton and Adeline Laulanie

Working Paper from Agence française de développement

Abstract: The use of frontier technologies in the field of sustainability is likely to accompany its visibility, and the quality of information available to decision makers. This paper explores the possibility of using artificial intelligence to analyze Public Development Banks’ annual reports. We introduce the SDG Prospector, which uses a language model that is more robust and more effective than keyword approaches to detect SDGs in a text.
