contents This paper establishes Applied Sociolinguistic AI for Community Development (ASA-CD) as a novel scientific paradigm for addressing community challenges through linguistically grounded, AI-enabled intervention. ASA-CD introduces three key contributions: (1) linguistic biomarkers as computational indicators of discursive fragmentation; (2) development-aligned natural language processing (NLP), an AI optimisation paradigm prioritising collective outcomes; and (3) a standardised five-phase protocol for discursive intervention. A proof-of-concept study, incorporating real-world and synthetic corpora, demonstrates systematic associations between exclusionary language and negative sentiment and simulates intervention-based improvements. ASA-CD provides a unified methodological, ethical and empirical framework for scalable, value-aligned AI in the service of community empowerment.
