Challenges of AI-Based Smart Cities

While AI offers many advantages, there are also challenges:
Privacy concerns due to data collection

High cost of technology and infrastructure
Need for skilled professionals
Risk of over-dependence on technology

Applications of AI in Smart Cities

AI acts as the brain of a smart city. It processes large amounts of data and finds useful information. AI
is used in many areas of a smart city to improve daily life.

Traffic Management
AI systems analyse traffic patterns using cameras and sensors. Signals can change automatically to
reduce congestion and save time for commuters.

Waste Management
Smart bins use AI to detect how full they are. Waste collection vehicles are then sent only where needed,
saving fuel and reducing pollution.
