The article from The Scotsman discusses how AI and the push towards net zero emissions are expected to transform three Scottish cities—Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen—by 2050. It highlights that AI will play a significant role in urban planning, traffic management, and energy efficiency, potentially reducing carbon footprints through smart city technologies. Edinburgh is anticipated to leverage AI for enhancing its tourism sector and managing its historical preservation alongside modern development. Glasgow, with its history of innovation, is expected to become a hub for green technology and AI-driven public services, focusing on sustainability and economic revitalization. Aberdeen, traditionally reliant on oil and gas, is poised for a transformation into a center for renewable energy, with AI aiding in the transition to a low-carbon economy. The article suggests that these changes will not only address environmental concerns but also reshape the economic and social landscapes of these cities, making them models for sustainable urban living.
