Kochi, often referred to as the Queen of the Arabian Sea, is now making waves in the tech world as it rapidly evolves into a smart city. At the heart of this transformation is Artificial Intelligence (AI) — a technology that is helping the city improve infrastructure, citizen services, safety, and sustainability. By integrating AI into its urban development initiatives, Kochi is setting new standards for how cities in India can use data and intelligent systems to become more livable and future-ready.
