It’s generating photos, it’s writing music, it’s creating art, it’s even driving for us. You’re likely already using AI to speed up administrative tasks to make yourself more efficient at your job. But how else can you incorporate AI into your day to day? From using AI to predict parking demand, to AI powered surveillance, to utilizing AI to manage pricing, any organization who wants to stay competitive needs to not only use AI, but understand its implications on every facet of planning.

Join Anh Nguyen, an entrepreneur and tech junkie, who is living the same AI rollercoaster as you, as she demystifies the jargon and complexity around AI. Our Parking panelists will enlighten you on the current state of AI tools that are in play today and coming in the near future.
