Webinar Replay + Q&A
As the use of artificial intelligence (AI) continues to grow and impact our daily lives, it is important to understand its influence on the spaces and cities in which we live. For example, we know autonomous vehicles are on their way, but when and in what forms? How might city planners need to account for them and their impact on everyday activities, such as commuting, parking, and simply walking around town?
In his role as the CIO of Palo Alto, California, and international speaker at Smarter City conferences, Dr. Jonathan Reichental has had a front-row seat for the planning cities are doing to prepare for the future. In particular, he has experienced firsthand the wealth of data that cities collect and use to make decisions, putting him in a unique position to describe the cities of tomorrow.
