The importance of this study is due to the actualization of the role of digital technologies in ensuring the sustainable development of the state and society. This especially applies to regions and communities that are closest to the needs of the population. Among these digital technologies, one of the important places is given to artificial intelligence, since the largest number of scientific discussions are taking place around it due to the growing uncertainty in its application. In this context, the purpose of the study is to determine the ways to develop public management of sustainable development of regions and communities through the use of artificial intelligence. It is argued to recognize one of the main tasks for Ukraine in the medium term – ensuring the development of regions and communities through the balanced and effective use of artificial intelligence technologies. It is recognized that such technologies open a new era for public management of regional and territorial development. They allow making informed public management decisions based on factual data, quickly adapting to changes in the institutional environment and building effective interaction between authorities and communities. It has been proven that an important condition for success on this path is not only the effective technological implementation of artificial intelligence, but also effective personnel training, an updated domestic legal framework and the presence of a strategic vision for the digital transformation of public administration.These proposals are made in view of the analyzed foreign public management practices in the field of ensuring sustainable development of regions and territories through the use of artificial intelligence (in particular, in the UK, Estonia, Latvia, Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, etc.). Similar and distinctive features of public management in the specified area regarding the implementation of artificial intelligence technologies have been identified. Promising vectors of digital functioning of Ukraine, its regions and communities (logistics, protection of personnel, management of material and financial resources, improvement of the quality of education, development of science, as well as integration into public management systems of settlements without fixed digital monitoring and notification technologies) have been identified and substantiated.
