This year, the Cloud Cities Forum, which will be held in the capital on September 17-18, will be dedicated to robotic technologies and artificial intelligence, said Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin.

In his personal blog, he noted that the development of robotics, automation and AI "are becoming the main drivers of the transformation of production, labor and social relations systems."

The forum will be organized at the Zaryadye International Exhibition Center. The event will be attended by representatives of government, business, scientific and technical community and opinion leaders from more than 35 countries. "Over 320 experts will discuss the priority and strategies of urban transformation in the horizon up to 2040, with an emphasis on the role of technology in achieving development goals," Sobyanin said.

Delegations from India, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and other countries got acquainted with the work of some technological and infrastructure facilities in the capital, including the metro situation center.
