"Our research has found that once trained, visual AI is shockingly accurate at predicting property values, crime rates, and even public health outcomes — just by analyzing photos. This will be a revolutionary tool for policy makers, giving them a data-driven understanding of every urban block, but it has a dangerous capacity to introduce biases and lead us astray. As unblinking, digital eyes come to our streets, will we be able to keep our own eyes open?" (MIT's Carlo Ratti and GSD's Antoine Picon)

Our research at MIT has found that once trained, visual AI is shockingly accurate at predicting property values, crime rates, and even public health outcomes.

It's here! Today we launch Harvard Design Magazine #48: "America"⁣
⁣
Under the curation of guest editors Mark Lee and Florencia Rodriguez, works to trace how America gained global definition and influence in the 20th century, and where and how American culture and design provoked unequal social outcomes. Lee and Rodriguez seek to chart the rise of post-war idealism and innovation, the subsequent "cultural megaphones" that fueled processes of Americanization in a newly globalized world, and the rise of capitalism and its ensuing decadences—and ensuing social stratification and exclusion. The built environment was crucial to all of these phenomena, the editors observe, especially the role of design in instilling or perpetuating structural inequity and disparate outcomes.
