The future of Sydney: Adopting AI to move the city forward
As one of the world's leading artificial intelligence entrepreneurs, Dr Catriona Wallace is urging Sydney to adopt AI infrastructure and the Internet of Things to prepare the city for the future. Wallace, like all the visionaries profiled in this story, is Sydney-based, so she has a truly local perspective. She is part of a large cohort of entrepreneurs committed to making Sydney an innovative city. "That's the greatest opportunity the city has," the founder and executive director of the ASX-listed Flamingo AI says. "AI can improve liveability, work stability and sustainability through things like autonomous vehicles, a distributed energy grid, a smarter food system, next generation weather predictions, smart disaster response and connected homes. So there's lots of different opportunities to use technology to improve quality of life."
