11th WebAndTheCity: The Responsible Web and AI for Smart Cities

This is the 11th edition of the workshop series labeled ''Web and the City - The Web and Smart Cities'', which started back in Florence in 2015 and kept on taking place every year in conjunction with the WWW conference series. Last year the workshop was held in Singapore. Each year the focus of the workshop is actualized, and this year the workshop focuses on the Responsible web and Responsible AI in cities and communities. In the era of digital twinning, AI, and the metaverse (so-called citiverse for cities), and under the UN 2030 Agenda for sustainable growth and resilience, cities are being transformed into virtual spaces that enable service automation and value generation to their communities and enterprises. Moreover, AI and web intelligence generate new types of opportunities, including generating automated transactions in these virtual spaces, which must preserve human-perceived consequences, fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics. This workshop aims to focus on how the Web transforms cities into responsibly intelligent virtual environments.

Abstract

This is the 11th edition of the workshop series labeled ''Web and the City - The Web and Smart Cities'', which started back in Florence in 2015 and kept on taking place every year in conjunction with the WWW conference series. Last year the workshop was held in Singapore. Each year the focus of the workshop is actualized, and this year the workshop focuses on the Responsible web and Responsible AI in cities and communities. In the era of digital twinning, AI, and the metaverse (so-called citiverse for cities), and under the UN 2030 Agenda for sustainable growth and resilience, cities are being transformed into virtual spaces that enable service automation and value generation to their communities and enterprises. Moreover, AI and web intelligence generate new types of opportunities, including generating automated transactions in these virtual spaces, which must preserve human-perceived consequences, fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics. This workshop aims to focus on how the Web transforms cities into responsibly intelligent virtual environments.
