[Air-L] AI in the City | New open access publication in three languages

[Jess Reia]

Hello everyone,

We are happy to share our recent open access publication, “Artificial
Intelligence in the City: Building Civic Engagement and Public Trust,”
available in three languages. This collection of essays features works from
participants of the AI in the City symposium that took place remotely on
February 10, 2022. The publication is divided into five parts:

1. Meaningful engagement and public participation

2. Addressing inequalities and building trust

3. Public and private boundaries in tech policy

4. Legal perspectives and mechanisms for accountability

5. New directions for local and urban governance

This project emerged as an opportunity to connect people, organizations,
and resources in the networks we built over the last decade of work on
research and advocacy in tech policy. Sharing non-Western and Western
perspectives, the participants questioned, challenged, and envisioned ways
public trust and meaningful civic engagement can flourish and persist as
data and AI become increasingly pervasive in our lives.

The collection of essays is designed to become a resource for a broad
audience of people with different backgrounds, skills, and interests. Here
we introduce perspectives from cities around the world, written by
contributors from five continents.
