Data science has the potential to positively impact the world in various ways, especially in terms of social welfare. Through data analysis, we can identify and tackle issues like poverty, inequality, and environmental sustainability. For instance, data science can aid in understanding the underlying causes of social problems and devising strategies to address them, such as using crime data analysis to prevent future incidents or analyzing healthcare data to enhance patient outcomes. Additionally, data science enables us to make informed decisions that benefit society, such as optimizing resource allocation or predicting and mitigating the effects of natural disasters.
