The ongoing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the fundamental fabric of society constitutes a transformative process, with the potential to exert profound influence on various facets of human existence including environmental quality. Our research investigates the interaction of AI and renewable energy production in 22 leading robotics and innovative countries, providing crucial insights into a previously underexplored domain. The study's novelty and originality are in demonstrating the precise impact of AI in enhancing and revolutionizing renewable energy production, consequently addressing, and filling a critical study gap. Our analysis comprises both asymmetric and symmetric assumptions to cover the positive and negative shocks of artificial intelligence on renewable energy from 1991 to 2020. The findings from the panel NARDL analysis provide substantial support for the profound impact of changes in artificial intelligence (AI) on the substantial stimulation of renewable energy in the long-run. Furthermore, AI plays a substantial role in enhancing long-term renewable energy production in the panel symmetric ARDL. In the country-specific investigation, it is found that Austria, Germany, and New Zealand are the nations where both affirmative and adverse changes in AI improve clean energy structure significantly in the short run. Natural resources, information communication technology (ICT), and economic growth also enhance renewable energy production. Finally, policies are directed to increase renewable energy production.
