Beskrivning

This book explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be harnessed to reimagine the urban future. Moving beyond the conventional “smart city” narrative, the book unveils a comprehensive framework in which AI becomes the cognitive infrastructure of modern civilization—learning, adapting, and co-evolving with the city itself. Through rigorously modeled case studies—from Barcelona’s PPO-driven traffic governance to Amsterdam’s dual-layer energy optimization and Dubai’s ethical algorithmic policing—the volume demonstrates how AI can transform mobility, energy, waste, and public safety into responsive, sustainable ecosystems. Each system is analyzed not only for its technical architecture but also for its ethical and civic implications, revealing how intelligence can be designed to serve justice, ecology, and participation. Bridging scientific precision with philosophical depth, Dr. Dimitrios Sargiotis advances a vision of cities as algorithmic organisms—self-optimizing yet ethically grounded. This book offers researchers, policymakers, and engineers a definitive guide to the design of resilient, equitable, and human-centric urban intelligence.
