SUMMARY:Can Generative AI Help Generate Support for Infrastructure Projects?
DESCRIPTION:Infrastructure projects work best when the communities served and impacted by proposed investments are engaged and informed early and effectively in the planning process. Visual renderings and data-driven maps explaining proposed works are a tool long used by the private sector to guide discussion about future outcomes with community stakeholders. But local governments typically lack the resources to produce accurate\, realistic renderings of committed infrastructure projects—let alone multiple possible designs. Generative AI\, however\, now offers a fast-expanding array of tools for creating photorealistic renderings and thematic maps that portray multiple options\, opening new possibilities for planning and public engagement. This session will explore how urban planners and community advocates are harnessing these new capabilities to engage community stakeholders earlier and more effectively\, to improve infrastructure projects and consolidate support as they seek federal funding. \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\n\nEmily Royall\, Smart City Administrator\, City of San Antonio\, Texas\n\n\n\nAshley Louie\, Chief Technology Officer\, BetaNYC\n\n\n\nDamiano Cerrone\, Co–Founder\, UrbanistAI

SUMMARY:Public Interest Technology Workforce Development - CUNY IT Conference Presentation
DESCRIPTION:PIT@CUNY: Advancing Public Interest Technology Through Upskilling\, Data Collaboration and Community Tech Apprenticeships (Collaborating with AI for Teaching and Learning) \n\n\n\nPublic Interest Technology (PIT) is an emerging field focused on the development of technology that promotes social good\, sustainability and equity. PIT approaches are being applied to AI\, machine learning\, disaster prevention\, data science and cybersecurity\, with a mission to address societal challenges. CUNY\, with its 25 campuses across New York City\, is at the forefront of advancing these technologies in civic engagement\, education and economic growth. PIT@CUNY is dedicated to integrating social justice into the design and deployment of technology\, ensuring diverse access and equitable use of tech tools. This mission is driven by university-community and university-industry partnerships\, which are vital to fostering innovation and systemic change. \n\n\n\nThe CUNY PIT Lab\, as part of PIT@CUNY\, received FY 2024 funding from the NYC Tech Talent Pipeline to support two key initiatives. First\, the development of experiential learning opportunities through paid apprenticeships with BetaNYC\, designed to create pathways for CUNY students into PIT careers.
