Is it advisable to expand the understanding of public safety to include such an area where AI is applied to public services? ; The article falls within the theoretical publication stream. The research tools and techniques used are characteristic of the social sciences, including political and administrative sciences and security sciences. Mainly the following were used : desk research, analysis of literature , normative acts, documents and strategies. The analysis was extended with statements of practitioners from local government as representatives of public administration. ; The result of the study is the confirmation of both research theses (H1 and H2) posed in the social science area of public safety and artificial intelligence systems. ; This article states that that AI has the potential to be used in the field of public safety by public administrations at the level of local and regional authorities, despite the correlated risks arising from the use of AI by the public sector.
