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.
