‘Miami is dead. Austin is dead. [SAN FRAN] is back Can AI save this city? (marketwatch.com)

I was in Austin a couple months ago. If that city is dead, there are few cities in the US that could be considered alive. Honestly this whole business of proclaiming cities "dead" is a bit absurd. Despite all the predictions of doom SF has remained vibrant and it's clearly not going anywhere, nor does it need AI to save it. Neither are Austin or Miami. Cities can succeed together, it's not winner takes all.
