World Models & the Future of Urban Life
We are now entering the era of World Models: AI systems that don't just process text, but perceive the physical world in high-fidelity, multimodal layers. What happens when these systems integrate into the fabric of our shared urban environments? Join Reka AI Co-founder Dani Yogatama and urban anthropologist Katrina Johnston-Zimmerman for a deep dive into the intersection of human behaviour and machine intelligence. The two will explore how revolutionary multimodal AI can push the bounds of urban design while ensuring cities remain equitable and human-centred.
