Do you ever wonder what cities will be like in the next few decades?

With over two thirds of our population living in urban areas by 2050 the demands on
cities’ services will increase significantly. Technological improvements to our
infrastructure will change the way citizens interact; Artificial Intelligence and the
Internet of things will allow the city to become smart; perhaps even allowing cities
to think like a human brain.

What changes can we expect?

• Cities will become greener and have more cycle and walking space along with
less pollution.

• Buildings will generate their own energy from renewable sources and their design
will be continually optimised thanks to smart data.

• The high street will offer richer, interactive shopping experiences with augmented
reality changing rooms.

• - Be it a workplace, a hospital, school or library – public buildings will become smart

and aware, constantly improving based on information they gather from themselves
and the other buildings around them.

• Buildings will also gather their energy source themselves through developments
like solar windows; and unused energy traded between nearby buildings and
vehicles so that those in need never run dry. Through the data they have access to,
they’ll run at optimum efficiency – aware of each of its occupants, keeping them at
the right temperature and making sure they stay healthy and safe.

• Shopping will also evolve – with augmented reality, AI and connected data all
playing their parts. Imagine walking into a clothes shop and being presented with
an interactive changing room. The shop will instantly know your size and use AI to
present you a selection of clothing it thinks you would like based on your previous
purchases and upcoming social calendar. If a design is not in stock it can be
delivered to your house by drone later that day.

AI and connected devices will play its part in the workplace too – automating things
like waste collection pods to when demand in the city is high, and bringing care to
people who need it.

Will this automation take over from people’s employment? The hope is that no, but
instead will see a shift so that people can focus on where they are needed most
and provide a higher quality, more personal service along with more insight towards
where they are needed most.
