Abstract: 
This paper explores the intersection of smart buildings, sustainable design, and artificial intelligence (AI) to achieve optimal energy efficiency in the built environment. Beginning with an introduction to the significance of energy optimization, the document delves into the principles of smart buildings and sustainable design. The focus then shifts to the role of AI technologies, including machine learning, Internet of Things (IoT), and advanced algorithms, in enhancing energy management systems. Real-world case studies highlight successful implementations, showcasing tangible benefits such as cost savings and reduced environmental impact. The paper also addresses challenges, emphasizing considerations related to data privacy, integration complexities, and user acceptance. Looking ahead, the document explores future trends and innovations, emphasizing the evolving landscape of AI and sustainable practices. The conclusion underscores the importance of ongoing research and collaboration among industry stakeholders to promote the adoption of AI for sustainable energy optimization in the built environment.
