The Davao City Council is pushing for the wider use of modern technology through artificial intelligence (AI) in government processes and the delivery of services.

An educational organization specializing in digital technology showcased its learning tools and programs such as robots during a City Council session.

The group demonstrated how AI can effectively help upgrade city government operations, particularly highlighting AI’s role in faster data analysis for city planning and processing requests.

The initiative aligns with the priority governance agenda of the city government to modernize and become future-ready.

Officials clarified that AI will not replace human labor in the local government, but will serve as a tool to assist workers.
