Waste management and recycling are essential in the fight against environmental degradation if we are to have a sustainable future. Using "Green Machines" as a metaphor for AI-driven breakthroughs revolutionizing trash management, this article examines the relationship between waste management and artificial intelligence (AI). Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, including computer vision and machine learning, can change waste management operations and improve sustainability, accuracy, and efficiency. AI enhances recycling operations, maximizes resource recovery, and reduces environmental impact through automated sorting and predictive maintenance. With an emphasis on AI’s contribution to sustainable waste management techniques, this abstract offers a summary of the major topics covered in the article.
