A disaster is an unexpected event that disrupts a society's functioning while also harming the human environment and causing financial and material losses. It can be caused by either natural or human factors. In today's society, disasters are seen as the product of good planning, which leads to hazards and vulnerabilities. The term “disaster management” refers to the planning and management of disasters. Artificial intelligence is the ability of computers to perform the tasks that are usually done by humans. Artificial intelligence has been used in many industrial applications and also used in everyday interactions with technology. Artificial intelligence is being used in sustainable development, and disaster risk management. Machine learning and artificial intelligence models can be used in both ways in disaster management, i.e., pre-in disaster management and post-in disaster management.
