Taking AI experimentation to the next level in cities

From fast-tracking the procurement process to guiding residents in accessing critical services, generative artificial intelligence is beginning to change how cities work. And at Bloomberg Philanthropies, we believe that it is by consistently experimenting with how generative AI can be integrated into their daily practices that city innovators will harness its full potential.

To deepen their understanding of generative AI, 120 data and innovation leaders from over 90 cities recently came together for a City Innovation Studio at Bloomberg CityLab in Mexico City. There, they dug into exactly how their innovation skills can take AI experimentation to the next level—and what this work can, in turn, produce for the people they serve.
