Taiwan and Florida: AI at the service of smart cities

Taoyuan in Taiwan and Orlando, Florida, exemplify the growing use of artificial intelligence in contemporary urbanization. Through integrated systems, these cities are improving traffic management and emergency services. Innovations enable ambulances to clear roads quickly and automatically translate emergency calls. These initiatives highlight the importance of smart grids for urban infrastructure.

Integrating AI into municipal systems remains a major challenge, as Huang Yung-Bei of the Taipei Computer Association points out. Cities must overcome barriers related to data sharing between departments. The technology aims not only to improve the quality of urban life but also to protect the environment and meet human needs, as Orlando Mayor Jerry Demings has stated.
