Ayesha Khanna, AI advisor, entrepreneur, and CEO of Addo, joins The AI Forecast to explore how AI is reshaping the cities we live in and the lives we lead within them. She and host Paul Muller dive into the intersection of AI and urban development, where infrastructure, governance, and personalization come together to elevate the quality of life. They discuss the real-world challenges of deploying innovative city technologies, the critical role of data management, and how AI can expand access to services like education and healthcare.
