In conjunction with The Augmented City, his landmark report for the Urban Tech Hub at Cornell Tech’s Jacobs Institute on the promise and perils of AI and augmented reality at urban scale, Greg com­mis­sioned the award-win­ning author Madeline Ashby to write a collection of short stories illustrating the report’s findings.

Those stories have been collected as an audio­book—alternately read aloud by Madeline and Greg—and published on YouTube, with illus­tra­tions by Nana Rausch. For best results, listen while perusing the report.

“What are the expectations for AI in 2025? How do C-suite leaders employ practical strategies for inte­gra­ting AI into existing workflows without im­pair­ing operations? And how do organizations iden­ti­fy genuine opportunities (and avoid com­mon pitfalls) amid the growing AI hype?

On behalf of Fast Company, Greg led a dis­cus­sion featuring Matt Minetola, CIO of Elastic, Rick Rioboli, CTO of Comcast Connec­ti­vity and Platform, and Cynthia Stoddard, CIO of Adobe, to learn about what’s next from AI and how to gain a competitive edge in a time of rapid trans­for­mation.

“What is the next disruptive technology to reshape the public realm, and how can cities better anticipate its effects upon arri­val?” asks Greg’s groundbreaking report on the impli­ca­tions of aug­men­ted reality at urban scale, The Aug­men­ted City. Com­pri­sing two years of research and foresight, this timely call to action lands just as Google rejoins Apple and Meta in the race to over­lay their pro­prie­tary techno­lo­gies on reality itself.
