P. 15

During the thematic group discussions, it was observed that there are many commonalities of
            AI principles in these documents. Several recurring principles emerged with varying degrees of
            presence in these documents.


            3.2     PART 2: Guiding principles framework for AI in cities


            Cities reside in a broader context in their national environments and partake in different local,
            regional, and global alliances and partnerships. Hence, their legal, economic, social, governance
            and environmental aspects differ (among others).


            It is important to note that the set of principles listed in this document pertain to general city
            aspects and encompass potentially applicable common principles, which are not specific to
            a particular sector. Certain sectors may opt to develop their own sector specific and detailed
            principles pertaining to their own needs.


            This section enumerates a list of principles that cities can adopt in their own contexts. It briefly
            discusses each principle and provides in some cases further explanation and implementation
            considerations to enhance their understanding.

            The first principle can be presumed compulsory since compliance with applicable laws and
            regulations are inherently mandatory for AI systems.



            3.2.1  Lawful

            AI systems exist in a broader context and are subject to laws and regulations applicable to all the
            jurisdiction(s) which they are part of. Therefore, AI systems should identify all relevant and applicable
            laws and regulations and comply with them. These laws and regulations can be international,
            regional, national or local.

            Note: Additionally, cities in their AI systems implementations are recommended to consider many
            key agendas that have been developed and agreed upon and are applicable to their jurisdictions.
            These may include the following: 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the New Urban
            Agenda (NUA), the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, the Connect 2030 Agenda for Global
            Telecommunication/ICT Development (Resolution 200 (Rev. Dubai 2018)), the UN Secretary-
            General’s Roadmap on Digital Cooperation, the Resolution on the right to privacy in the digital
            age, the Resolution on new and emerging digital technologies and human rights, regional EU
            Agendas (including Lisbon Strategy, the 10-year Digital Agenda for Europe, as well as the EU Digital
            Compass and the New Leipzig Charter, and so on).
