While national and supranational governance structures wrestle with AI frameworks for development, cities, states, and provinces are legislating and planning for the ongoing and looming AI-enabled societal transformations. Given their respective roots on the West Coast and in Catalonia, Carnegie California and Barcelona Centre for International Affairs (CIDOB) are convening practitioners, policymakers, and industry to explore the implications of AI, highlighting the benefits, challenges, and strategies for leveraging this technology effectively at the city and state/provincial level. The agenda for the second meeting of the “Cities, States and Artificial Intelligence” project will revolve around two main themes: (a) the contribution of regional and local governments to ongoing efforts to regulate AI by supranational and national bodies; (b) strategies to build AI capacity and attract tech talent to ensure equitable development of AI.
