Using artificial intelligence
to make Hong Kong
smarter and safer

Becoming a smarter, safer city is key to Hong Kong’s future strategy to attract business investment and improve quality of life for citizens and visitors.

Hong Kong has relatively low crime rates, particularly given how densely populated it is. In a densely-populated urban environment such as Hong Kong, however, the opportunities for crime and terrorism are always present and the police force and other public-sector organisations must do what they can to stay a step ahead of would-be criminals.

Artificial intelligence (AI) can help security forces maximise their resources without increasing headcount. By implementing a citywide surveillance system, police and other public-sector organisations can improve safety for Hong Kong citizens.

Furthermore, a citywide surveillance system can uncover data that can help city planners make Hong Kong a more liveable city for its citizens.
