Seriously, I have a Mom, Dad, Step Dad and Step Mom all quite advanced in their respective job fields. 3 of them work from home 90% of the year, are much healthier for it and honestly seem to more done since they can work while muting themselves during unproductive but non-crucial meetings. It's absolutely asinine for most white-collar workers to have to drive to a cubicle every day.
Panana Beals true, in this age of technology and connectivity, it's almost criminal to be physically present for work except in certain fields or situations
I have been to Korea. It was a pleasure seeing all of this during my vacations. It would be nice if the technology was implemented in other countries but, unfortunately some of the other countries won’t fully implement this because they have other things tp deal with. I live in the US and I’m only a teenage it would be great if this was to happen in the near future as population increases in large cities.
You assume Work would be a thing for a significant part of the population. That assumption is not gonna hold much longer, i expect to see 75% unemployment in my lifetime.
Thanks to The Economist for informative and educational journalism. You certainly know how to tell a story that makes the subject of smart cities interesting. Quality production values too.

I wish I could reach to the makers of the video and tell them how lovely their work is! Astonishingly, it attracted only 152k views over more than a year. A movie-trailer would register more views in an hour. The world is full of spectators and void of thinkers. Such factual-films deserve much wider viewership.
Its not about technology. Its about design. A well designed city will work excellently with little technology, technology can often make up for a poor design but it can never replace it as a priority.
I am watching this in 2022, back then we had no way of anticipating COVID...I am in Kenya and have never heard of FLARE but it sounds like an amazing app.
I want to work at home and not physically have to go to office everyday. That way I could minimize my usage of car, time spent going to work, pollution etc
I seriously ponder sometimes what sophisticated cities like Seoul, San Francisco, and Stockholm will be like by 2050. Perhaps not much will change in 33 years, but I think I'm probably wrong
The first change needs to be information. Too much old information is driving many people's minds and ideas while hucksters use that false data to push a bad viewpoint on a research-challenged populace.
@@natenate88 Perhaps not the well-off areas? I'm sure the areas that are known as "the heart of silicon valley" will be the ones to see the most change
Smart city is a strategic process that includes 6 characteristics of the city (People, Environment, Governance, Life, Economy and Mobility) Technology is the enabler of solutions that encourage efficiency and saving on resources while improving the services to the citizens and the quality of their lives.
Technology is solving problems in Uban cities, but what is the solution for problems in rural areas or underdeveloped countries ? That's another topic too to discuss.
Looks nice in a video, but reality is not like this. Seoul has huge traffic jams, especially during rush hour in Gangnam district. They should have filmed that. But metro works perfectly, as well as buses and kakao taxi (Korean version of whats' up + uber)
well, Seoul has a larger population density than most Western cities, so this is actually amazing. Compared to Asian cities of a near similar population density like Manila, Bangkok, or Mumbai, traffic jams in Seoul are is very manageable for its size.
Hopefully by 2050 we should have transportation (such as the hyperloop) that allows us to live further from the city and IP based systems that would allow employees to login and work from home or anywhere else.
I hope that I live long enough to see how self-driving cars improve cities. Imagine a city where, within the city limits, almost all transportation is done by little, plastic or aluminum self-driving electric pod-cars. If you need to go someplace, you summon a Pod (two people summoning two Pods). This would eliminate the need for parking structures and parking places. The city would densify, which is environmentally more efficient. There would not even be a need for bus lanes! Little pod-cars would coexist nicely with bicyclists and pedestrians (better than buses!). If someone needed to go somewhere outside of the city, they would take a Pod to the city limits, and rent a car. This should be instituted in Manhattan immediately.
I hope to see updated videos to all of the Disrupters' content in 2020 to see where those services are. In South Africa we have Namola, more like Flare in Kenya, it's super fast it's unbelievable.
It is amazing that Seoul, Busan, and other SK cities were completely full of slums and shacks 70 years ago. Nowadays they are ones of the frontrunners of smart cities globally. Thanks to Park Chung Hee & Kim Dae Jung for making SK now
very smart. this would revolutionise the way big and small business' if everyone had access to data, more effiencient, less waste. people would think tactically, i see this as a big win.
I want to work from home using my xbox and accessing Fortnite to create a global network. In doing this I could raise my workload to unprecedented levels increasing productivity. My rise to the top of the leaderboards will be assured saving the world from imminent and inescapable destruction.

Cities don't "consume 3/4 of the worlds energy" or emit "around fifty percent of ghg emissions." It's an obvious and foolish error to attribute energy use to a place. That would be like saying "countries use 100% of the world's energy", or "buildings use 100% of the world's air conditioning". Stories are more compelling when there's a 'bad guy', but using statistics to paint a place, or a type of place, as the agent of a particular problem makes The Economist look like it doesn't understand basic accounting.
An app for people to call 911? Wouldn't it be easier to dial 911 than install the app? How does the app ask all the questions a competent dispatcher would ask? This video isn't about useful tech, it's about reinventing the wheel, except the new wheel is worse than the existing one.
Cities are the most miserable places to live. Hopefully I will be in my house in the country so that I will not have to deal with the pollution, crime and misery...
Super AMOLED technology is made, patented and owned by SAMSUNG. Apple buys most of its components from Samsung from memory chips, SSDs and now the OLED displays for the iPhone X because Apple has used LCDs up until the X. Samsung is much larger than you think. And the screens you saw and said were grainy were not grainy to me. Maybe your its the screen you’re viewing on that is grainy. 😂😂😂

First shift to work from home on a massive scale,
It will kill traffic, save money, increase efficiency, and solve a ton of problems

San Francisco is not sophisticated is the slightest. Its a crackhead mecca. Literally a huge toilet.
cities will probably collapse as we enter an age of decentralization.

@Hoon J how? you literally cannot predict these things, just as it would have been beyond the imagination of the wisest predicters in 1950s Seoul..
Thanks for covering the African city
Technology could help. But do not forget that cities are, first of all, made of people. They are the ones who will make the change.

Any thoughts on how data will impact the infrastructure industry in terms of civil engineering and construction
There's already an app in Korea for young people seeking accommodation from elderly property owners; its called AirBnB. It does other stuff, too.
Awesome 😘😘
Is this even valid post COVID?
I think this video should be reposted because the channel now has more audience due to its increased subscribers.
Why this channel has so few subscribers?
I think channels like Vox, Wendover Productions, and TED-ed have taken up the bulk of people's attention.
So, earlier there was no voice in their videos?
I take that back
Because its neo-liberal propaganda.
the economist mostly do politicized videos where they push the western agenda in a very biased nature.
Technology is solving problems in Uban cities, but what is the solution for problems in rural areas or underdeveloped countries ? That's another topic too to discuss.

How can we mitigate more suffering in hopeless regions of the world? Get some doctors to perform vasectomies to those men who want it.
