Abstract:

In recent years, the breakthroughs in artificial intelligence technology, particularly in large language models (LLMs), have been profoundly reshaping the global industrial landscape and social governance models. As a core driver of the new technological revolution and industrial transformation, large language models, with their powerful capabilities in general understanding, generation, reasoning, and interaction, have opened up new avenues for the development of smart cities. By analyzing the deep integration mechanism between large language models and smart cities, this study focuses on how large language models can empower the modernization of urban governance systems, the intelligence of public services, and the efficiency of industrial economies. It also examines key driving factors such as algorithm innovation, computational power support, data element circulation, and policy environment, aiming to provide forward-looking references and practical guidance for urban managers and policymakers.

Key words: large language models (LLMs), smart cities, data elements, urban governance
