(2023·沈阳质检)Danish architecture studio Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) has designed Terminus AI City Operating System as a campus in Chongqing, China, which will be operated by an artificial intelligence system.Everything in the city will be operated by this system.
BIG has drawn up the plans for Terminus Group, which will have its headquarters at the centre of the AI-run city campus.
The development will be located in Chongqing Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone and will include Cloud Valley, the campus-style headquarters of Terminus Group.“We have over the recent years worked with several of the world's leading technology companies.We are thrilled to bring our experience to Chongqing,”said Bjarke Ingels, founder of BIG.“Cloud Valley is imagined as a city where people, technology and nature live together in harmony with spaces designed for all types of life: human life, animal life, plant life and even artificial life.”
BIG's design for Cloud Valley is intended to demonstrate the environmental goals of the project.Green roof panels will create open-air courtyards throughout the campus.These courtyards will host art exhibitions and sports events.At night, the underside of the roof panels will be transformed into what BIG describes as “the largest digital display in China”.
In the AI City, people will live in homes with self-adjusting solar panels and have a digital assistant to run their lives.Buildings will have power systems controlled by Terminus Group software.
“As sunlight hits the houses, bedroom windows become transparent to allow the natural light to wake sleepy residents,” said Terminus Group.“Once the light has filled the room, an AI housekeeper selects your breakfast, matches your outfit with the weather, and presents a full schedule of your day using Terminus Group's smart transportation solution.”
The AI City will have e-bikes and self-driving cars to cut down on traffic jams.
