Yoksulluk; sadece gelir eksikliği değil, aynı zamanda sosyal dışlanma, hizmetlere erişim yetersizliği ve dijital eşitsizlik gibi unsurları da içermektedir. Yapay zekânın yoksulluğu hem azaltma hem de derinleştirme potansiyeli ele alınmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, hizmet kalitesinin artması, dijital kapsayıcılık ve yönetişimde şeffaflık gibi olumlu etkilerle birlikte; işsizlik, algoritmik önyargı ve dijital bölünme gibi riskler de analiz edilmektedir. Makale, bu ikili etkinin insan merkezli ve bütüncül politikalarla yönetilmesi gerektiğini savunmakta; dijital altyapı, beceri dönüşümü, sosyal güvenlik ve etik düzenlemelere dayalı öneriler sunmaktadır.

Poverty is not only a lack of income but also includes elements such as social exclusion, inadequate access to services, and digital inequality. The article explores the dual potential of AI to both alleviate and deepen poverty. Alongside the positive impacts such as improved service quality, digital inclusivity, and greater transparency in governance, risks such as unemployment, algorithmic bias, and digital divide are also being analyzed. The study argues that these opposing effects must be managed through human-centered and holistic policy approaches, and it offers recommendations based on investments in digital infrastructure, skills transformation, social protection systems, and ethical regulations.
