SUMMARY:The Future of AI & Sustainable Cities: Strategic Foresight & Transformative
DESCRIPTION:Join the final session of the Sustainable Smart Cities and AI series\n\n\nAs artificial intelligence continues to evolve\, its implications for sustainable urban development are rapidly expanding – from data-driven planning too adaptive infrastructure\, and from ecosystem modeling to equitable service delivery. This culminating session will explore the long-term trajectories of AI in cities and communities\, focusing on how we can anticipate\, design for\, and responsible govern transformative innovation in the built environment. Bringing together a multidisciplinary panel of global experts\, this session will examine foresight trends\, systemic opportunities\, and potential risks. We will discuss how AI might fundamentally reshape city systems\, governance models\, and sustainability frameworks – and what actions stakeholders can take today to prepare for a more intelligent and resilient urban future. \n  \nBy the end of the session\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify key foresight signals and global trends shaping the future of AI in sustainable cities\nEvaluate how AI can drive systemic transformation across urban systems\, including governance\, infrastructure\, and design\nAnalyze strategies for integrating AI with sustainability goals while anticipating ethical\, social\, and environmental risks\nEngage with future scenarios and apply scenario-based thinking to navigate uncertainty and align AI innovations with long-term urban priorities\nCompare international perspectives to inform strategic planning\, institutional readiness\, and innovation pathways for scaling responsible AI\n\n\n\nSpeakers \nHubert Beroche – Director and Founder\, Urban AI \nZhenia Dulko – Foresight Manager\, American Planning Association \nEve Lin McNaughton – Director\, Innovation and Research\, USGBC \nEmily Binet Royall – Senior Information Technology Manager – Emerging Technology\, City of San Antonio \nTom Sanchez – Professor of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning\, Texas A&M University \nAnthony Townsend – Senior Research Associate\, Cornell Tech
