Ok. So what makes a city more walkable than another. My attempt to list the variables (in no order) Density, but not tooooo much — distances never too great, but also crowds not too intense Localized distribution — that is every neighborhood (every city is a federation of neighborhoods) is essentially its own micro city, with all necessities & entertainment near by Proper Infrastructure— pedestrian crossings, sidewalks, bridges with pedestrian paths, etc. this is very micro but huge. Sidewalk integrity is a big deal! An extensive public transportation system — ability to get from any point A to B in a time not that different from a car, and hopefully faster. Or. The micro cities are stitched together properly. Good Climate/ low crime — walking should be comfortable & safe. Duh. Cool things to want to walk to — I mean. You should want to leave your pod. The result of all of the above is you want to walk & don’t need a car, since you can either live locally &/or you can get from any point A to any point B, with your legs, or your legs and bus/metro without feeling you been overly taxed I’m sure I’ve missed something!

AI x Robotics is advancing incredibly fast. Rabbit, Amazon, OpenAI, Intuition, Samsung, Shift Robotics, and Columbia University have all made major progress over the past week. Here's everything you need to know:
