Abstract

 The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in smart cities has become a transformative paradigm, enabling more efficient urban management and sustainable development. IoT systems collect vast amounts of data through sensors deployed across urban environments, while AI technologies analyze this data to make intelligent decisions that improve city operations. This paper explores the synergistic relationship between IoT and AI, discussing how data collection and analysis can lead to more informed decision-making processes in areas such as traffic management, energy efficiency, public safety, and environmental monitoring. The research outlines the technical and operational challenges of integrating these technologies and presents case studies where IoT and AI integration has demonstrated notable improvements in city infrastructure and services. Furthermore, the paper examines future trends in the evolution of smart cities, highlighting the role of 5G, edge computing, and data privacy concerns.
