Artificial Intelligence is often considered to be the fourth industrial revolution because of its unprecedented potential to change everything. As AI progresses to improve day by day, it has blessed humans with everything from smart healthcare to secured smart cities. Everything has been changed by AI and IoT in smart cities. In this paper, the various use cases of AI and IoT for urban planning in order to build smart and sustainable cities are discussed The proposed research work has reviewed various papers that could potentially be used in the development of smart cities.
