About the Event
The Smart Cities and AI Innovations Symposium is a day-long event that brings together interdisciplinary professionals from academia, industry, government, research institutes, and non-profits to explore how artificial intelligence transforms our urban environments. Hosted in the Avaya Auditorium on the University of Texas at Austin’s main campus, the symposium features a dynamic program with distinguished speakers from leading universities across Texas and beyond, alongside practitioners advancing smart mobility and AI applications in our cities.
This year’s symposium focuses on emerging technologies and real-world AI applications, including Large Language Models (LLMs), Digital Twins, Computer Vision, and GeoAI. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in interdisciplinary networking, including a dedicated lunch session and collaborative networking activities. The symposium is designed to foster knowledge exchange, relationship building, and collaborative problem-solving as AI technologies continue to shape urban life.
This event is organized by UT Austin researchers working on A Good System for Smart Cities, one of the core research projects of Good Systems. Good Systems is a university-wide, interdisciplinary research grand challenge focused on designing ethical AI technologies for the benefit of society.
