Ideas Festival – Insights from the Humanities & Social Science: Double Seminar on “AI x Workers + Making Sense of the Future”
The Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities (LKYCIC) presents a double seminar featuring two presentations that shed light on interesting and highly pertinent topics of our times. Join us for an exciting and insightful session!
Human Smart Cities, Data Visualisation and Citizen Engagement
LKY CIC Brown Bag Lunchtime Talk – The abundance of data has promoted a technology-centric view of a Smart City. Human Smart Cities emphasise the role of citizens, their needs and a bottom-up approach to urban development and improving the quality of lives of citizens.
Promises and pitfalls of virtual nature on well-being and human-nature relations
LKY CIC Brown Bag Lunchtime Talk – Urbanization and digitalization have contributed to a physical and psychological disconnect between people and nature, which has detrimental consequences for the well-being of humans and the environment.
Urban Agetech: The Automated City as an Ageing-Friendly City?
LKY CIC Brown Bag Lunchtime Talk – Having ageing/age-friendly cities continues to be important, with people living longer and populations ageing. While an ageing/age-friendly city need not depend on automation, this talk discusses a vision of the “Automated City”, and explores how it might help enable an ageing/age-friendly city. Particular personas and examples involving urban robots will be discussed.
