The following document is one example of how Chinese local governments propose to useAI in their work. The document, from Xiamen City in southeast China, lists over 100 potentialAI use cases for the city government andits subordinate district governments, and includescontact information for each use case, presumably so that AI companies canmore easilymake sales pitches to fulfill these requirements.Most of the use cases involve using large AImodels—a few specifically recommend DeepSeek—to spot patterns and anomalies in bulkdata, mostly for innocuous purposes, such as catching errors and omissions in paperwork orhelping teachers gradeassignments. However, several use cases, mainly at the districtgovernment level,aim to use AI technology for China’s surveillance state or for predictivepolicing, including incorporating AI into the “Sharp Eyes” mass surveillance camera programand into aerial surveillance by automated drones.
