AI and the Future of Smart(er) Cities
The evolution of urban planning towards a human-centered approach, emphasizing the integration of AI and technology in creating sustainable, inclusive, and adaptable smart cities.
Hans Neubert's article from October 30, 2023, "AI and the Future of Smart(er) Cities," contrasts the early 20th-century urban planning ideas of Le Corbusier with today's focus on human-centered, sustainable design. Highlighting the shift from strict order to inclusivity, Neubert discusses the role of AI and technology in developing cities that cater to diverse needs while addressing environmental challenges. Upcoming smart city projects like The Line, Praxis, Telosa, and Toyota’s Woven City exemplify this integration of technology in urban life.
Neubert predicts AI's crucial role in urban services by 2030, impacting transportation, healthcare, and environmental management, similar to its transformative effect on the automotive industry. He emphasizes the need for collaborative partnerships and standardized frameworks in city planning, suggesting that future cities will evolve as living organisms focused on improving livability, with AI playing a supportive role.
