The article discusses the use of AI in organizing the work of local governments. The competencies required for employees in the management field were identified to enable them to effectively interact with automated systems based on AI algorithms. The most popular types of AI are identified, which are already used in the work of municipalities in Ukraine and abroad. Promising areas for the use of AI in public administration were identified. The results of the current study made it possible to identify a wide practice of using AI in the field of municipal management and describe new opportunities for its implementation in the practice of local self-government bodies in Ukraine. The practical result of the study is a set of recommendations for improving the effectiveness of the use of AI in the organization of the work of local self-government bodies. The theoretical result was the identification of the main regularities in the use of AI algorithms and automated systems created on their basis in the professional activities of specialists in the field of municipal management. It is emphasized that the transition to the use of modern technologies and means of implementing managerial decisions at a qualitatively new level has already become one of the necessary tools for the effective work of local authorities
