It provides empirical evidence of the emergence of a post-smart trajectory for cities, emphasizes the importance of understanding the mutually constitutive relations between AI technology and the urban context, and engages with the concepts required to clarify the opaque relations between AI and the city. It is a useful resource for undergraduates and postgraduates in urban studies, urban planning, geography, architecture, urban design, science and technology studies, sociology and politics. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 420 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01 December 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis captivating book delves into the intricate interplay between artificial intelligence (AI) and the urban realm, exploring both theoretical concepts and practical applications. Through a comprehensive array of urban disciplines and case studies, the chapters unveil the profound impact that AI is exerting on urban society, infrastructure, governance, planning, and sustainability. Contributors also delve into the fascinating ways in which the city, far from being a passive recipient of new technologies, actively shapes and reframes AI through subtle processes of co-constitution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book makes three significant contributions and arguments:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirstly, it presents empirical evidence of the emergence of a post-smart trajectory for cities, where new material and decision-making capabilities are being assembled through the convergence of multiple AIs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSecondly, it underscores the critical importance of understanding the mutually constitutive relations between the novel experiences enabled by AI technology and the urban context.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThirdly, the book engages with the concepts necessary to clarify the opaque relationships between AI and the city, as well as how to make sense of these relations from a theoretical perspective.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtificial Intelligence and the City serves as a cutting-edge analysis and comprehensive review of AI urbanism, spanning its historical roots to its widespread global emergence. This multidisciplinary work will be an invaluable resource for undergraduates, postgraduates, and scholars across urban studies, urban planning, geography, architecture, urban design, science and technology studies, sociology, and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032431475\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44873457238266,"sku":"9781032431475","price":151.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1702057860471_book.jpg?v=1702280616","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/artificial-intelligence-and-the-city-urbanistic-perspectives-on-ai-9781032431475","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
