AI in the City
30th October 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM GMT
AI for Collective Intelligence (AI4CI), Architecture and Design Scotland (A&DS) and Edinburgh Futures Institute (EFI) are proud to host a public forum on ‘AI in the City’.
Join us for a broad and rounded discussion between expert panellists working within Geocomputation, city planning, smart city design, AI integration and AI ethics. Moderated by Scottish journalist, broadcaster and presenter Stephen Jardine.
Do you want to know more about how AI will affect how our cities are designed and managed? How AI will impact our towns, cities and rural areas? And what work is already in motion?
This event will give members of the public access to expert knowledge and the opportunity to ask the questions they most want the answers to.
Join us on 30th October and stay engaged with the influence of AI on city living, building and planning; the challenges, the opportunities, the risks, the rewards and the impact to communities living in these areas.
