Yes, I believe education contributes to societal development and I have personally witnessed the positive impact of education in my society. In my society, people were so dependent on their parents and the government for survival, which today is no longer the way it was. Most of these people in my society who were rooming about the street causing problems that couldn't speak well, dress nice, and so on are now doing well in their lives after they have gained an education.

Education has taught many people in my society to be responsible, good ambassadors, teachers, lecturers, commissioners, and so on, and most of them are now contributing to the growth of society. I know of two people in my society who got scholarships abroad which was possible because of education. Education contributes to societal development has it helps us to do things the right and unique way.

• As a member of a society, what do you see as your role in promoting development?

As a member of my society what I see as my role in promoting development is respecting the rules and regulations of my society, and creating awareness that would encourage positive change in my society. Education, health, and social development awareness would be the role that I will play in promoting development in my society currently. However, if I had the money I would build standard schools, hospitals, companies, and industries in my society to promote development.

Yes, I think artificial intelligence (AI) will lead to significant societal development shortly across so many sectors potentially transforming how we work, interact, and live. Below are some of the areas in which AI will lead to societal development.

• Healthcare advancements. AI can rapidly analyze molecular structures and predict how they interact with different diseases, spreading up the process of finding medications.

• Automation and Industry Efficiency. AI can monitor machinery in real time, thereby predicting breakdowns before they happen, leading to fewer disruptions and lower maintenance costs.

• Education and Personalized Learning. AI-powered tutors can provide students with instant feedback, allowing students to learn at their own pace.

Other areas are:

• Economic growth and new job creation
• Environmental sustainability
• Improved decision-making and governance
• Challenges and ethical considerations
