Artificial Intelligence is used in almost every sector, whether it's healthcare, banking, automobiles,
space exploration, and many more. With its expanding applications, if we say tomorrow's world will
be an AI world, it won't be incorrect. The usage of AI is not just used in products. It might be utilised
in places in the future that we cannot now imagine.
Due to its extensive features, capabilities, and applications, it will impact not only our daily lives but
also our neighbourhood. In this context, we will discuss an AI approach that will modernise our way
of life. In this chapter, we will talk about how AI can alter our city, school and our home.
Smart City
A city is referred to be a "smart city" if it uses information and communication technology (ICT)
to improve the quality and effectiveness of urban services including energy, transportation, and
utilities. Reduced resource usage, waste, and overall expenses are prioritised in smart cities.
The concept of smart cities began around the 1970s, when the US Community Analysis
Bureau began using databases, aerial photography, and cluster analysis to collect data, direct
resources, and issue reports in order to direct services, mitigate against disasters and reduce
poverty.
A smart city has lots of uses for AI-powered, IoT-enabled technology from maintaining a healthier
environment to enhancing public transport and safety.
