This book explores in theory and practice how artificial
intelligence (AI) intersects with and alters the city. Drawing upon
a range of urban disciplines and case studies, the chapters reveal
the multitude of repercussions that AI is having on urban society,
urban infrastructure, urban governance, urban planning and urban
sustainability. Contributors examine how the city, far from being a
passive recipient of new technologies, is influencing and reframing
AI through subtle processes of co-constitution. The book advances
three main contributions and arguments: First, it provides
empirical evidence of the emergence of a post-smart trajectory for
cities in which new material and decision-making capabilities are
being assembled through multiple AIs. Second, it stresses the
importance of understanding the mutually constitutive relations
between the new experiences enabled by AI technology and the urban
context. Third, it engages with the concepts required to clarify
the opaque relations that exist between AI and the city, as well as
how to make sense of these relations from a theoretical
perspective. Artificial Intelligence and the City offers a
state-of-the-art analysis and review of AI urbanism, from its roots
to its global emergence. It cuts across several disciplines and
will be a useful resource for undergraduates and postgraduates in
the fields of urban studies, urban planning, geography,
architecture, urban design, science and technology, sociology and
politics.
