About
Otello Palmini is a leading voice at the intersection of artificial intelligence and urban studies, pioneering the emerging field of AI urbanism. His most-cited work, "Charting AI urbanism: conceptual sources and spatial implications of urban artificial intelligence" (2023, 34 citations), provides a foundational framework for understanding how AI technologies are reshaping cities. Through an interdisciplinary lens, Palmini teases out the conceptual origins of urban AI and maps its tangible spatial consequences, from smart infrastructure to algorithmic governance. His research critically examines how machine learning, data-driven planning, and autonomous systems are not merely tools but active forces reconfiguring urban life, equity, and design. By bridging computer science, geography, and urban theory, Palmini offers scholars and practitioners a nuanced vocabulary for debating the promises and perils of intelligent cities. His work is essential reading for anyone seeking to grasp how algorithms are rewriting the rules of urban space.
